A Missouri death row inmate was executed following denials of two appeals by the U.S. Supreme Court for a pair of 2006 slayings.
A Missouri death row inmate was executed Tuesday night following denials of two appeals by the U.S. Supreme Court for a pair of 2006 slayings . Brian Dorsey, 52, was pronounced dead at 6:11 p.m. after a single-dose injection of the sedative pentobarbital at the state prison in Bonne Terre, Karen Pojmann, communications director for the Missouri Department of Corrections told Fox News Digital in an email. He took a few deep breaths as the drug was injected, then several shallow, quick breaths.
day after the killings, Sarah Bonnie’s parents went to check on the Bonnies after they failed to show up for a family gathering. They found the couple’s 4-year-old daughter on the couch watching TV. She told her grandparents that her mother 'won’t wake up.' Dorsey surrendered to police three days after the killings. He 'has spent every day of the past 18 years trying to make up for the single act of violence' he committed in 2006, one of his lawyers said.
In a final statement handed out prior to the execution, Dorsey expressed deep sorrow for the killings. 'Words cannot hold the just weight of my guilt and shame,' the written statement said, in part. A clemency request to Missouri Gov. Mike Parson was denied. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
