PART1
Death penalty
By: Karina Lizbeth Guevara Martínez
It was a quiet morning on January 14th, 2015 in the state of Texas. The sky
was cloudy and the mist was covering the air. Everything seemed to be
normal, until the calm was disrupted by a loud noise.
A police car appeared. The patrol stopped just in front of #1123, Sunset
Avenue. An instant later the police officer got off his car and hastily walked
towards the building. What had happened? Who could know?
A 45 year woman was found death. A neighbor had discovered the terrible
scene and called 911. The apartment door was opened and the entire place
was a mess. The body was left in the middle of the living room. She had been
tied with a rope around her neck. Her body had several scratches and bruises.
Her name was Laura Alegría. Everyone in the neighborhood were astonished
with the news because Laura was a peaceful and kind person.
Soon afterwards, a criminal investigation started and after a long process the
murderer was caught. Because of the Texas law for this cases, he has been
sentenced to death.
But suddenly something went wrong. The defense stipulated that not enough
evidences has been presented. It was time to look for more witness.
Laura's family was devastated. They have been waiting a long period of time
for the judgment day and now it seems like everything had gone to garbage.
All their justice desire was taken away. Their feelings have been hurt. They did
not expect such a negative experience. They certainly didn't want to be
ignored. Family's lawyer would have to do a greater effort to work things out.
Finally, the murderer confessed and the case was determined as a first degree
murder. The criminal's name was John Tena, and he was sentenced to capital
punishment. Which must be occurring in no longer than months by lethal
injection.
All effort was worth it! The only issue that was left behind was how the family
would heal the pain...

Question Answer
John Tena has been sentenced to death, was it fair? Yes, because the law in the state
of Texas is like that. Once he
confessed to having committed the
crime, he was sentenced to capital
punishment.
Do you think that Laura's family feels better as they see the I think that in part they feel better
criminal being executed? Why? to have found the culprit, but the
pain will continue, because Laura
will never return.
In a country with a fair justice system which cases have to be
sentenced to death? In my opinión in cases of Murder

Do you think that Mexico has a reliable justice system? I do’nt think so, because here in
Mexico, the one who has the
money and the power will always
be free.
Would be death penalty an option in México? It could be an option, but I do not
think it will be carried out, because
there are many relationships
between the one who has power
and those who commit the crimes
