Condemned Missouri inmate David Hosier is telling The Associated Press he's unhappy with the contents of the clemency petition for him that's now before Gov. Mike Parson.
This photo, provided by Missourians to Abolish the Death Penalty, shows inmate David Hosier, Friday, June 7, 2024, at Potosi Correctional Center in Potosi, Missouri. Hosier is scheduled to be executed Tuesday, June 11, 2024, for the deaths of a Jefferson City couple in 2009, but he has long questioned how he could be convicted on circumstantial evidence. The 69-year-old is set to be executed Tuesday for the 2009 deaths of a Jefferson City couple, Angela and Rodney Gilpin.
Hosier's fate rests solely with Parson, a Republican and a former county sheriff who has overseen 10 executions since taking office in 2018. One of Hosier's lawyers, federal public defender Larry Komp, said Monday that there are no last-minute court appeals pending.— a rare move for death row inmates. He was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. He said he's on medication, but continues to feel poorly.
Detective Jason Miles said Hosier made numerous comments to other people threatening to harm Angela Gilpin in the days before the killings. Hosier was an immediate suspect, but police couldn’t find him. They used cellphone data to track him to Oklahoma. A chase ensued when an Oklahoma officer tried to stop Hosier’s car. When he got out, he told the officers, “Shoot me, and get it over with,” court records show.
