AUSTIN, Texas - Texas prison officials on Wednesday executed a man for the gruesome 1991 murder of a woman who was stabbed repeatedly with an ice pick and strangled with stereo wire at her Dallas-area apartment, state officials said.
Bobby Lee Hines, 40, was pronounced dead by lethal injection in Huntsville, Texas, at 6:28 p.m. local time, according to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

Hours after neighbors heard screaming and other loud noises, Haupt's body was found just inside the door of her apartment.
