Donald Dillbeck, 59, was pronounced dead at 6:13 p.m. after receiving a lethal injection, the governor’s office said. He had been convicted in murder of Faye Vann, 44, in Tallahassee near the state Capitol.
The execution was Florida’s first in nearly four years and the third under Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis. By comparison, his immediate predecessor, current U.S. Republican Sen. Rick Scott, oversaw 28 executions.
Vann honked her horn, tried to drive off and fought her attacker that Sunday afternoon, but was stabbed more than 20 times and had her throat slit by Dillbeck, the court records say. Dillbeck, now 59, would have had the possibility of parole after serving 25 years years of his sentence for the deputy’s murder. During the carjacking, Dillbeck told Vann to drive because he had forgotten how, according to court documents. He crashed the car shortly after stealing it and was captured after running from the scene.
