Another Georgia man has been slated to be executed this month. The state Attorney General has issued an order for Samuel David Crowe to be executed May 22nd. Crowe was sentenced to death in Douglas County in 1989 following his conviction on robbery and murder charges in the killing of his former boss. If the execution of Crowe proceeds, it would be the second in Georgia since the U.S. Supreme Court upheld that lethal injection is constitutional. Earlier this week, William Earl Lynd was executed.
