Motions filed for two execution dates to be set in Mississippi
SUMMARY: Mississippi is seeking execution dates for two men, Willie Jerome Manning and Robert Simon. This would mark the third year in a row with executions in the state after a nine-year period without any. Despite growing trends of other states moving away from the death penalty, Mississippi lawmakers don’t foresee a change. Some groups, such as Death Penalty Action, argue that the state should reconsider its stance. However, Senator Brice Wiggins, who worked on the Willie Jerome Manning case, believes the victims’ perspective is often overlooked in these discussions. The Office of Capital Post-Conviction Counsel claims that evidence suggesting Manning’s innocence is being disregarded.
