Facts of the Crime:
Riles was convicted of the December 1974 attempted robbery and slaying of a Houston used car dealer, John Thomas Henry. Henry, 31, was shot at the car lot following a dispute with Riles and co-defendant Herbert Washington over the condition of a car recently purchased by Riles. Following the shooting, Riles reportedly stood over Henry and demanded his money.
Riles was sentenced to death in Harris County in February 1976.
No execution date has been set because he suffers from delusions and paranoia.
