158 20240930 Execution

[김순희]

A Missouri man has been executed for the 1998 fatal stabbing of a woman despite calls by her family and the prosecutor's office that put him on death row to let him serve out the rest of his life in prison. Marcellus Williams is the third Missouri inmate put to death this year and the 100th since the state resumed use of
the death penalty in 1989.
He was convicted of killing Lisha Gayle, who was repeatedly stabbed during a burglary at her suburban St. Louis home.
