filed to Parson on Dec. 12 by McLaughlin's attorneys requested a sentence of life without parole in place of a death sentence. The document cites chronic trauma McLaughlin experienced in childhood, including brain damage from fetal alcohol exposure, traumatic brain injuries as a child, abuse she suffered — including tasing and beating — at her adoptive home, and her diagnosed depression and suicide attempts as reasons for clemency.
In a statement referring to McLaughlin by her name and gender identity before she transitioned, Parson confirmed the State of Missouri will carry out the death penalty sentence. Since Parson took office in June 2018, five executions have taken place in Missouri after he declined to grant clemency in each case, according to theOregon governor to commute sentences of all 17 people on state's death row to life without paroleMcLaughlin began stalking Guenther at her St. Louis workplace after the couple separated, sometimes hiding inside the building, according to court records.
