| Justice for Amora |
Justice for 13-month-old Amora Carson has finally arrived on September 25, 2025. After two previous stays of execution, Blaine Milam was executed for his role in murdering the precious baby girl. By now, she would have been a young adult. Milam, who went to death row when he was 18, is now 35. Amora is gone. Now, he is gone as well. He was executed by lethal injection in Texas.
His final words:
"I would like to give a special thanks to all of you for showing me kindness, compassion, empathy, love and support and believing in me."
"And if any of you would like to see me again, I implore all of you no matter who you are to accept Jesus Christ as you Lord and Savior and we will meet again. I love you all, bring me home Jesus."
"Thank you for everything that y'all have done. I would also like to thank the directors of chaplaincy of TDCJ for opening up the faith base program on death row and allowed me to be accepted into it to find Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior." Source: https://www.express.co.uk/

"Blaine Milam was executed by lethal injection on September 25, 2024, for the 2008 killing of his then-fiancée's 13-month-old daughter, Amora Carson. The execution took place at the Texas State Penitentiary in Huntsville, Texas. Milam's case has been controversial, with his attorneys arguing that the evidence against him was unreliable and that he should not be executed. Despite these claims, the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles unanimously declined to grant him clemency, leading to his execution." The Texas Tribune
"Blaine Milam's execution was a significant event in the Texas death penalty system. He was executed by lethal injection at the Texas State Penitentiary in Huntsville. The execution was part of a double execution scheduled for the same day in Alabama, where Geoffrey West was executed for the 1997 murder of a gas station employee. Milam's execution was marked by his claims of innocence and the controversial nature of the evidence used to convict him. Despite his appeals and claims of intellectual disability, the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles denied his request to commute the death sentence. The case has drawn attention for its controversial aspects, including the use of bite-mark evidence and the reliability of DNA evidence." The Texas Tribune
I have been following this case for years. It was important to me. I personally knew Blaine Milam.
