JACKSON, Ga. (AP) A man who shot and killed his ex-girlfriend and another woman nearly 25 years ago was executed Thursday evening in Georgia.
Scotty Garnell Morrows approximate time of death was 9:38 p.m., Warden Benjamin Ford told witnesses at the state prison in Jackson. Morrow, 52, was convicted of murder in the shooting deaths of his ex-girlfriend Barbara Ann Young and her friend Tonya Woods at Youngs Gainesville home in December 1994.
Strapped to a gurney before he received a lethal injection of the sedative pentobarbital, Morrow said, I would like to give my most deepest and sincere apologies to the Woods family and the Young family, adding that he hopes they can find peace.
He also apologized to LaToya Horne, who also was shot but survived. And he apologized to his friends and family for the hurt and pain, saying, I love you all.
