On January 22, 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected [3] the application for stay of execution of sentence to death and petition for writ of certiorari of Mexican national Edgar Tamayo. He was then executed via lethal injection in Texas. According to a news story [4], Tamayo was arrested in 1994 on charges of murdering a police officer and authorities failed to advise him of his right under the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations to notify Mexican diplomats. Tamayo’s case was one of those considered by the International Court of Justice in the 2004 case Avena and Other Mexican Nationals (Mexico v. United States of America) and the third Mexican citizen that was a part of the case to be executed in Texas. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, Mexico’s Foreign Affairs Ministry, and former Governor Mark W. White Jr. urged the state of Texas to stop Tamayo’s execution.
