USA - Florida. Everett Miller formally sentenced to death

USA - Florida

31 May 2022 :

Everett Miller formally sentenced to death. On May 13, Circuit Court Judge Greg Tynan formally sentenced Everett Miller.
Back in 2019 an Osceola County jury unanimously rendered first-degree murder verdicts for August 2017 murders of police officers Matthew Baxter and Sergeant Sam Howard. The judge had been thinking this over for 6 months. At the last hearing in November, Miller's defense said he suffered from PTSD after serving in Iraq. Miller's attorney, in a court filing this year, say that he should be spared the death penalty for a number of reasons. Lawyers say his service in the marines and because he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder from his time at war should be reason to spare him. Attorneys say Miller took part in killing thousands of people, including the enemy, and innocent civilians.
