Atlanta GA—The lawyer for a Georgia man set to become the state’s 23rd inmate to be executed has petitioned the Georgia Supreme Court and U.S. Supreme Court to spare his client’s life…Mark McClain is scheduled to die, Tuesday night, at 7:00 p.m.
McClain’s attorney, on monday, asked the U.S. Supreme Court to order a lower court review of the case…
McClain was convicted in 1995 of murdering 28-year-old Kevin Brown during a robbery at an Augusta Domino’s Pizza in 1994. Prosecutors say McClain held Brown up at gunpoint, took $130 from the register and then shot and killed Brown as he left the store, on Washington Road.
McClain’s attorney argues that his client deserves a lesser punishment, because the shooting was the result of a “single, panicky .22 pistol shot from a considerable distance away.“
