Pregnant woman seeking to escape abuser shot in both eyes
Carlos Cuesta-Rodriguez is set to be executed in Oklahoma for the 2003 murder of Olimpia Fisher, his pregnant partner, whom he shot after she attempted to leave him amid domestic abuse. The crime occurred after a confrontation fueled by his obsessive and violent behavior, which included stalking and choking Fisher. Despite attorneys' pleas for clemency, the Oklahoma Board of Parole and Pardon denied mercy, with Cuesta-Rodriguez acknowledging his remorse and saying he deserves to suffer. The execution is scheduled for August 13, and he is the third inmate due to be executed in Oklahoma this year.
