Missouri Executes Man Who Killed His Girlfriend And Her 2-Year-Old Daughter

For the brutal death of his girlfriend and two year old (likely the clincher), though four justices (yet again not saying way) would have granted a stay, Richard Morris was executed today. His daughter by the woman was three months old and was unharmed; she grew to love him. A clemency petition including words from her was turned down; she's a victim of the murder. Execution of this mentally unhinged person did not further justice much.
