The state, which executes more people than any other in the United States, plans to execute Ray Jasper, 33, at 6 p.m. CDT by
lethal injection at its death chamber in Huntsville.
Jasper was convicted of the 1998 killing of David Alejandro, 33, who owned and operated a studio where musicians could be professionally recorded for a fee.
Jasper and two friends recorded at the studio for about two hours and then took out knives to attack Alejandro.
