Georgia Executes Death Row Inmate After 20-Year Wait | Atlanta News

Death row inmate Stacey Humphreys, convicted of a brutal 2003 double homicide in Georgia, is set for execution on September 16th after a 19-year wait — and a recent legal delay that’s now been lifted. The victims, real estate agents Cyndi Williams and Lori Brown, were killed at their workplace after being forced to hand over bank info; Humphreys then stole over $3,000. He’d just been released from prison 13 months earlier on parole for theft — and was using payday loans to pay for a truck. Originally scheduled for December, the execution was paused for clemency review but has now been ordered to proceed, making this Georgia’s first lethal injection since 2021 and the state’s 55th execution overall.
