Texas man on Death Row faces execution for pastor's murder he denies committing

Steven Nelson, 37, has been on Death Row in Texas for over 12 years. He is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection on February 5, 2025, for the 2011 murder of pastor Clint Dobson, a crime he claims he did not commit. Nelson acknowledges being a lookout during the robbery but insists his accomplices, who were never tried, committed the murder. His appeals have been denied by Texas courts and the U.S. Supreme Court. As his execution date nears, Nelson expresses concern for his wife, who he married while in prison. He has requested his spiritual advisor to be present during the execution for support.
