Texas is scheduled to execute Blaine Keith Milam, 36, on Thursday for the 2008 death of his fiancée's 13-month-old daughter, Amora Carson. Milam was convicted of beating the child to death with a hammer after believing she was possessed by demons, during an 'exorcism.' The case garnered attention due to the gruesome nature of the crime, with autopsy reports revealing severe injuries including bite marks, skull and rib fractures, and sexual assault. Milam and his then-girlfriend, Jessica Carson, initially provided false explanations for the child's death, claiming she had been in a car accident, bitten by dogs, or had hit herself. Milam was sentenced to death in 2010 after an eight-hour jury deliberation, making him one of the youngest on death row at the time. His previous scheduled executions in 2019 and 2021 were stayed, but the current execution date proceeds amid ongoing appeals, including claims of unreliable forensic evidence and his intellectual disability. The case has highlighted issues with forensic science, particularly bite mark evidence, and raises questions about the fairness of his trial. Carson received a life sentence for her role. The case remains controversial, with Milam maintaining his innocence and his legal team challenging the validity of the evidence used against him.
