A Missouri inmate convicted of ambushing and killing a St. Louis area police officer — whom he blamed in the death of his younger brother — was executed Tuesday night.
A Missouri inmate convicted of ambushing and killing a St. Louis area police officer he blamed in the death of his younger brother was executed Tuesday night.
Johnson saw officers arrive and awoke his 12-year-old brother, Joseph"Bam Bam" Long, who ran to a house next door. Once there, the boy, who suffered from a congenital heart defect, collapsed and began having a seizure. The court filing said Johnson walked down the street and told his mother that McEntee"let my brother die" and"needs to see what it feels like to die." Though she told him,"That's not true," Johnson returned to the shooting scene and found McEntee alive, on his knees near the patrol car. Johnson shot McEntee in the back and in the head, killing him.
Ott declined to halt the execution, and appeals to the Missouri Supreme Court and U.S. Supreme Court were turned aside.
