Three US States Schedule Executions on Same Day Including Indiana, Florida, Alabama
Jeffrey Weisheit, convicted of killing two children in a 2010 house fire in Indiana, was executed by lethal injection on November 5. On the same day, Florida and Alabama also scheduled executions, marking the second time this year three executions occurred simultaneously in the US. Weisheit's legal team appealed for brain scans and sentence commutation due to mental health concerns, but Indiana's governor denied these requests. Florida's execution of Jesse Guardado, convicted of a 2004 murder, would be the state's 19th this year, matching a record.
