Sixteen years after murdering a Dallas police officer, the killer has gone to his own death in Huntsville.
Texas Department of Criminal Justice officials say Wesley Ruiz was executed in Huntsville last night.
In 2007, Ruiz gunned down Dallas Police Senior Corporal Mark Nix at the end of a high speed chase.
On Wednesday, the US Supreme Court rejected appeals from Ruiz's lawyers as did the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals on Monday.
