Is the state about to put an innocent man to death?
I'm Lester Holt, and this is The Last Appeal, a podcast from Dateline.
Episode one, Nikki.
It's September 2025, one month before Robert Robertson is scheduled to be executed.
I'm in Palestine, Texas, once a busy railroad hub.
Today, downtown looks more like an empty movie set.
It's the town where two-year-old Nikki was taken to the hospital.
On the morning of January 31st, 2002, a man walked in pushing a woman in a wheelchair.
Resting on her lap was Nikki.
She was unconscious, barely breathing.
A nurse named Kelly Garganis was the first to see Nikki that morning.
Has she talked before anybody?
No.
I'm with producer Dan Slapian.
We wanted to speak with Kelly, so we stopped by her house.
Hello, hi.
Are you Kelly?
Hi, I'm Lester Holt from NBC News.
Yes, sir.
