Missouri Supreme Court denies stay of execution for Brian Dorsey, convicted of 2006 murders.

Missouri Supreme Court refuses to halt Brian Dorsey's execution, scheduled for April 9. Dorsey was convicted in 2008 for killing his cousin Sarah Bonnie and her husband Ben Bonnie in 2006. The court's unanimous decision states that Dorsey has not demonstrated actual innocence, and his claims of ineffective trial representation cannot be raised again. Dorsey's attorney has not confirmed whether an appeal will be made to the U.S. Supreme Court.
