ATMORE, Ala. (AP) - A man condemned for the 1987 killing of his daughter's 16-year-old boyfriend in rural south Alabama has been executed by lethal injection.
Phillip Hallford was pronounced dead at 6:26 p.m. Central Standard Time on Thursday at Holman Prison. When asked if he had any final words, he said, "No."
Hallford spoke softly to the chaplain and guards for a few minutes as the lethal injection was administered, and then quietly slipped away.
The 63-year-old Hallford, accused of sexually abusing his 15-year-old daughter, was sentenced to die for forcing her to lure Eddie Shannon to an isolated area in Dale County, shooting him three times and throwing the body off a bridge.
