Supporters fight to stop execution of Texas man convicted in daughter's ‘shaken baby' death

The clock is ticking for an East Texas man set to die by lethal injection in just two days. In 2003, Robert Roberson was found guilty of murdering his 2-year-old daughter, who prosecutors said killed from shaken baby syndrome. His supporters are urging the governor to issue a stay – giving them more time to appeal the case that they say was built on faulty scientific research. NBC 5’s Allie Spillyards has the latest.
