Robert Roberson was convicted of killing his 2-year-old daughter in 2003 .

Roberson convicted of murder tied to a case of shaken baby syndrome, a diagnosis that some medical experts have questioned.

Lawmakers issued a last-ditch subpoena ordering Roberson to testify at the Capitol days after his execution date.

The Texas Supreme Court ruled Friday that a legislative subpoena cannot stop an execution.
