This is a sixty -year -old in Florida, who had been convicted years ago for the murder of his partner and her three young children
A sixty -year -old killer was executed, years after his conviction for the murder of his partner and her three young children, yesterday in Florida, in the southeast US.
Jeffrey Hatsinson, a former soldier, who had served in the first Gulf War (1990-1991), was sentenced to the last sentence of the murder of René Flacherte’s companion, 32, and her three children, 7, 7, 7, 7-year-old, 7-year-old, 7-year-old.
It was executed with deadly injectable chemicals at 8:14 pm (local time; at 03:14 today Greece time), the State Creationary Office said in a statement.
The defense argued that he was mentally ill because of his experiences in the war and tried, in vain, to ensure a suspension of his execution.
Fifteen executions have been made in the US since the beginning of the year: eleven with injectable deadly chemicals, two with a challenge due to nitrogen inhalation, a controversial method used for the first time in the world in Alabama (southeast) in 2024, and two in the last year in South Karolina; 2010.
The death penalty has been abolished in 23 of the 50 US states. In the other five (California, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee) a moratorium is applied to its imposition, by decisions of their rulers.
