GA Commutes Death Sentence Three Hours Before Execution

By Jeralyn

ADVERTISEMENTS

The Georgia Board of Pardons and Parole granted clemency to Samuel David Crowe today three hours before his scheduled execution. He had already eaten his last meal.

Crowe, age 47, will now serve life without parole. The board found he expressed sincere and exceptional remorse.

At Thursday's hearing, his lawyers presented a dossier of evidence attesting to his remorse and good behavior in jail, according to local media reports. The lawyers also said he was suffering from withdrawal symptoms from a cocaine addiction at the time of the crime.

109 men remain on Georgia's death row.
