Missouri death row inmate Marcellus Williams executed despite prosecutor's objection
The US state of Missouri on Tuesday executed death row inmate Marcellus Williams for the 1998 murder of a woman, even though the prosecutor's office that secured his murder conviction 21 years ago expressed doubts about the integrity of the case. The victim's family had pleaded with authorities to spare him and to turn his sentence into a life sentence.
