ENTRY ON INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY - This cause is before the Court to determine whether Bruce Webster is entitled to relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The Court finds that Webster has met his burden and shown by a preponderance of the evidence th at he is intellectually disabled, as he meets all three prongs of intellectual disability: 1)Webster has intellectual-functioning deficits; 2) Webster has adaptive deficits; and 3) the onset of these deficits was while Webster was a minor. In maki ng this ruling, the Court has carefully considered the totality of the evidence and weighed the testimony in accordance with its credibility assessment of each witness. Accordingly, Webster's petition for a writ of habeas corpus is GRANTED. W ebster's death sentence is vacated under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The Attorney General has 120 days from the Entry of Final Judgment to take appropriate action in light of the writ. Further sentencing proceedings shall occur in the Northern District of Texas. (See Entry.) Signed by Judge William T. Lawrence on 6/18/2019. (DMW)

ENTRY FOLLOWING HEARING OF JUNE 18, 2018 - The Court finds that Webster has met his burden and shown by a preponderance of the evidence that the Social Security records were unavailable to him at the time of trial despite trial counsel's d ue diligence. As such, they constitute newly discovered evidence. Accordingly, Webster has satisfied the savings clause, and the Court next must turn to the merits of the petition and determine whether Webster is so intellectually disabled that he is categorically ineligible for the death penalty. A telephonic status conference will be set by separate order (SEE ENTRY FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION). Signed by Judge William T. Lawrence on 8/31/2018. (DWH)
