I just heard this on the radio on my way home.
Apparently, Deputy Briscoe had gone to Baze's home to serve a warrant from Ohio, but Baze had refused to cooperate, so the deputy left to get help in the form of Sheriff Bennett. When they returned to the house a short while later, Baze ambushed them with a high-powered hunting rifle.

This still won’t help Fletcher win; the state is moving back to its Democratic roots. People in KY gave the GOP a chance, and the party proved lacking from the standpoint of Kentucky preferences.

Perhaps the EU will chime in on this one too.

There is no excuse for this persons execution to have taken this long. And still there is little hope for it happening when scheduled.
The victim and families should not have to wait this long for finality.

'including 11 who have been there for more than two decades.' Hey Kentucky! Send the criminals up here to Michigan where they will get 3 hots and a cot for the rest of their lives. No executions, 1.7 billion state deficit, Highest unemployment rate in the USA. Dem der convicted criminals need some vacation time.
