Lisa Ann Coleman from Texas was found guilty of capital murder and executed for
the death of 9-year-old Davontae Williams. Paramedics who found him dead said at her
trial that they were shocked to learn his age. He weighed 36 pounds, about half
the weight of a normal 9-year-old.
A pediatrician testified that the child had more than 250
injuries, including burns from cigarettes or cigars and scars from ligatures,
and that a lack of food made him stop growing. “There was not an inch on his
body that had not been bruised or scarred or injured,” said Dixie Bersano, one
of the prosecutors.
But according to her lawyer, Stickels, she got the death
penalty because she’s a black lesbian. 'Her sexual orientation played a role in
the state choosing to seek the death penalty and in her getting the death
penalty.’
