As usual, the families of the executed are treated as if they do not exist.
Joe Cannon's mother collapsed outside "The Walls" prison in Huntsville Tuesday
night upon learning that her son was dead.
An ambulance was called and she was taken to a hospital. We do not know her condition. She
has been in ill health. She is diabetic and had not eaten all day.
The Houston NBC-TV affiliated did show the collapse and the ambulance.
The CBS station did not mention it, and I did not catch any other broadcasts.
