Ga. court denied execution stay to Lynd

ATLANTA (AP) - May 6, 2008 Lynd is scheduled to die at 7 p.m. Tuesday. He was convicted of kidnapping and killing his live-in girlfriend, 26-year-old Ginger Moore, shooting her three times in the face and head nearly 20 years ago.

The Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles also rejected Lynd's request for clemency. Lynd's lawyer, Tom Dunn, had asked Georgia's top court to grant a stay so it could consider new forensic evidence. He is expected to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
