A Florida inmate known as the 'ninja killer' is set to be executed Wednesday for murdering a couple in Palm Coast, Florida, in 1989.
State Rep. Paul Sherrell made the comments during a criminal justice committee hearing where lawmakers discussed execution for Tennessee inmates.A Florida inmate known as the"ninja killer" was executed Wednesday for murdering a couple in Palm Coast, Florida, in 1989.
Lawyers for Gaskin wrote there is “an undisputable national consensus” that if a death sentence is to be constitutional, it should be unanimous. They also wrote the jury was never presented “with profound compelling mitigating evidence" and still four jurors recommended life. Gaskin was convicted in 1990 of two counts of first-degree murder in the robbery nad killings of Robert Sturmfel, 56, and Georgette Sturmfel, 55, in Palm Coast, Florida.
In the case of the Sturmfel killings, Gaskin stole a clock, two lamps, and a videocassette recorder, which were found at his residence after the killings. The items were intended to be Christmas gifts for his girlfriend, according to investigators.
