Orlando Hall
Federal Penitentiary Terre Haute, Indiana
A Texas man convicted of kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 16-year-old Arlington girl, then bludgeoning her with a shovel before burying her alive, is scheduled to be put to death tonight in prison at Terre Haute, Indiana. Orlando Hall’s attorneys have argued that racial bias played a role in his death sentence. Hall is black, and an all-white jury recommended his sentence.
