No delay in scheduled execution of Brandon Bernard in Terre Haute

There will be no delay.

A federal judge is denying a request to halt the upcoming execution of an inmate on death row.

Brandon Bernard, a 40-year-old from Texas, is guilty of murdering two youth ministers there in 1999.

He shot one of them in the head and knocked the other unconscious.

Bernard then locked both people in a car and lit it on fire.

Bernard’s lawyers had been trying to halt his execution — but no dice.

He’ll become the ninth inmate at the federal pen in Terre Haute to be executed this year on Thursday.
