2 executions scheduled for same day in Florida for the first time in more than 60 years
Florida is set to execute two death row inmates, James Aren Duckett and Dominick Anthony Occhicone, on July 28, marking the first time in over 60 years the state has carried out double executions. Duckett was convicted for killing an 11-year-old girl in 1987, while Occhicone was convicted for murdering his ex-girlfriend’s parents in 1986. Governor Ron DeSantis signed death warrants for both, with appeals pending at the U.S. Supreme Court.
