Billy Kearse Execution Set for March 3, 2026 – Convicted in Fatal Shooting of Sgt. Danny Parrish

Описание: Billy Kearse, a man on Florida death row, is set for execution on March 3, 2026, for the 1991 murder of Fort Pierce police officer Danny Parrish. This is the shocking true story of a routine traffic stop that turned deadly, a cop killer's long fight against the death penalty, and Florida's record-breaking execution pace under Gov. Ron DeSantis.

On January 18, 1991, 18-year-old Billy Leon Kearse was pulled over by 29-year-old Sergeant Danny Parrish for driving the wrong way on a one-way street in Fort Pierce, Florida. What started as a simple traffic stop escalated into a violent struggle: Kearse grabbed Parrish's service weapon and fired 14 shots—13 hitting the officer, who died from his injuries. Kearse confessed to the shooting during a struggle to avoid arrest. Convicted of first-degree murder and robbery with a firearm, he was sentenced to death on November 8, 1991.

Now 53, Kearse has spent over 34 years on death row. Recent claims include intellectual disability (based on lifelong low IQ and childhood trauma from poverty, abuse, and neglect), neurodevelopmental immaturity at age 18, and arguments that the death penalty is unconstitutional in his case. Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the death warrant in January 2026, sparking debates over due process, short warrant periods, and Florida's aggressive execution schedule (following a record 19 in 2025).
This case highlights the fault lines of youth, trauma, race, and capital punishment in America—will justice be served, or is this another tragic chapter in Florida's death penalty system?
