At what point do you just say, "eh, fuck it" and let him out anyway? At what point do you look at the evidence both new and old, and say, "if he is not allowed to appeal in light of new scientific evidence, then justice has not been served and it would be unjust to carry out his sentence"?
It's Texas, so... Never? Can't let evidence get in the way of a good execution.
