Robert Roberson , 57 , had been scheduled to die by lethal injection Thursday for the killing of his 2-year-old daughter, Nikki Curtis .
Roberson was convicted of capital murder in his daughter's death from shaken baby syndrome, a condition once used as evidence of child abuse that experts now consider outdated and too vague to support a criminal charge.
He would be the first person in the U.S. put to death for a conviction linked to shaken child syndrome.
