Inmate asks to delay execution, says co-defendant who blamed him for killing had secret deal
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — An inmate set to be executed in South Carolina in three weeks wants the state Supreme Court to delay the execution so his lawyers can argue his co-defendant who testified against him lied about having no plea deal in exchange for his testimony. Attorneys for Freddie Owens also said in court papers filed late Friday that a juror saw a electronic stun device Owens had to wear in court to assure good behavior and a judge never talked about why he had to wear it. It’s part of a flurry of legal action as South Carolina tries to restart its death chamber after not putting an inmate to death in 13 years. At least six executions are looming. Also on Friday, the South Carolina’s Supreme Court promised it would wait at least five weeks between executions.
