The Georgia Department of Corrections has scheduled the execution date for a man convicted of murdering two real estate agents in Cobb County two decades ago.
Stacey Humphreys is scheduled to be put to death at 7 p.m. on Dec. 19, according to the department.
Humphreys, 52, was convicted of malice murder in the 2003 killings of 33-year-old Cindy Williams and 21-year-old Lori Brown
Humphreys entered a sales office in a model home for a new subdivision in Powder Springs around midday on Nov. 3, 2003.
The two women worked there as real estate agents, and evidence presented at trial showed that Humphreys forced them to strip naked and give him their bank PINs before fatally shooting them and taking their driver’s licenses and bank and credit cards.
Humphreys was on parole for a 1993 theft felony theft conviction at the time and had been released from prison 13 months earlier.
Witnesses told police they saw a man fitting Humphreys’ description at the sales office and a vehicle in the parking lot that matched his black Dodge Durango. Police zeroed in on Humphreys and tried to question him at his Dunwoody home days later. He fled and was arrested in Wisconsin after leading police on a high-speed chase.
Police found a Ruger handgun that matched the 9 mm bullets used to kill the women in the console of the rented Jeep Humphreys used to flee. Blood on the gun matched Williams’ DNA, and blood in Humphreys’ truck matched Brown’s DNA, according to court documents.
His conviction was handed down in 2007, but Humphreys appealed all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Humphreys claimed a juror “misleadingly omitted critical details of her own experience as a victim of a similar crime and then bullied the other jurors into voting for death based on that prior experience,” Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote in a dissent.
The court denied Humphreys’ petition for a writ of certiorari earlier this year.
Georgia uses the sedative pentobarbital to execute people, according to the Department of Corrections.
Humphreys would be the first person executed in Georgia this year.
The Department of Corrections said if his execution is carried out as scheduled, he will be the 55th inmate put to death by lethal injection.
