Death penalty date

[edit]

The Fox News report is from Aug 9 2005,[1] but the Findlaw source, which summarizes the case in greater detail, reports it as October 27, 2005.[2] Any thoughts on this? MartinezMD (talk) 16:42, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind. I overlooked this in the Fox report - "A federal judge will formally impose the sentence later."

Article title

[edit]
It saddens me to know a crooked cop, convicted of a heinous crime of First Degree premeditated murder, was seeking compassionate release. It was denied.
Moreover, it is extremely disgusting that a co-conspirator of such a crime has a stand alone article and the victim does not. Maybe that is why there are articles such as Murder of Kim Groves, and not just a section is this persons article. -- Otr500 (talk) 19:45, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I thought of naming it similarly when I wrote the article, but unfortunately the topic has taken on a broader significance since then, not the least of which is the presidential commutation of the death sentence as well as the discovery of tainted evidence leading to the false conviction of innocent people.
