Georgia Slated to Execute William Sallie Tonight

HeadlineDec 06, 2016

And the state of Georgia is slated to execute William Sallie at 7 p.m. tonight. Sallie’s lawyers have demanded his execution be halted so he can have a hearing to address claims of juror bias—an issue that has not yet been heard by a court in his case. If executed tonight, Sallie would become the ninth person killed by the state of Georgia this year.
