Missouri to execute Brian Dorsey Tuesday, the state's first lethal injection of 2024

Описание: Missouri will execute a man on death row on Tuesday.

Gov. Mike Parson announced Monday afternoon he would not stop the execution of convicted murderer Brian Dorsey despite a push to stop it.

Dorsey is convicted of killing his cousin, Sarah Bonnie, and her husband, Ben Bonnie, in 2006 just north of Jefferson City in New Bloomfield. Parson said Dorsey was visiting their house to borrow money from them when drug dealers came knocking at his door to collect their debts.

During the crime, Dorsey's current attorney said he was going through drug-induced psychosis, which was not investigated or mentioned during the initial trial -- making even some of the victims' family no longer in support of the death penalty.
