By: The Newsroom
Updated: November 15, 2012
The State is scheduled to carry out its 15th execution of the year tonight, just one day after another execution.

Despite several appeals, 46-year-old Preston Hughes III of Harris County, faces lethal injection Thursday.

This, for the double-murder of 15-year-old Lashandra Charles and her 3-year-old cousin, Marcell Taylor, back in 1988.

They were found stabbed behind a Houston restaurant.
