In Episode 16, Kyle and Lisa looked at the case against Benjamin Cole, who is scheduled to face execution in Oklahoma on October 20, 2022. On December 20, 2002, Cole killed his 9-month old daughter, Brianna while his wife was out of their home doing laundry. We’ll talk about the crime, Cole’s trial, his appeals and post-conviction claims, which have included multiple attempts by his attorneys to challenge his competency in both state and federal court. We’ll also address some of the misconceptions regarding criminal culpability and competency to be tried and/or executed in the context of the legal system.
