Texas executed Steven Nelson for the 2011 murder of the Rev. Clint Dobson Wednesday night. It is the second execution of the year in the nation.

Steven Nelson, 37, was sentenced to death in 2012, a year after he was found guilty of fatally beating and suffocating NorthPointe Baptist Church pastor Clint Dobson.

Prosecutors say in North Texas say 13 years ago Steven Nelson went into a church and killed Reverend Clint Dobson.

A Texas man convicted of beating and suffocating a Dallas area pastor in his own church during a robbery was facing execution on Wednesday, the second scheduled execution in the U.S. so far this year.
