Summary
In Italy, Lee Gilley, the Texas man charged with strangling his pregnant wife, appeared before a Turin court this week and refused to consent to extradition, claiming innocence and saying the only crime he committed was fleeing; the case now hinges on whether Texas prosecutors will agree not to seek the death penalty, a guarantee Italy requires before extraditing anyone. And in Tennessee, a man who shot his ex-wife to death in her own driveway while she begged for her life on a 911 call pleaded guilty to murder the day before his trial was set to begin and was sentenced to life in prison; prosecutors say that while awaiting trial, he also attempted to hire a fellow inmate to kill his former mother-in-law.
