Billy Kearse, 53, to be executed in Florida on March 2, 2026, for killing a police officer in 1991.
Billy Leon Kearse, 53, is scheduled for execution on March 2, 2026, in Florida for the 1991 murder of Fort Pierce Police Sergeant Danny Parrish during a traffic stop.
Prosecutors say Kearse, then 18, resisted arrest, took Parrish’s gun, and fired 14 shots, killing him.
The execution, Florida’s third in 2026, marks the state’s record-breaking 19 executions in 2025—more than any previous year since the death penalty’s reinstatement.
Kearse’s appeals, including claims of intellectual disability and unfair sentencing, were denied by Florida’s Supreme Court, with final appeals pending before the U.S. Supreme Court.
Two additional executions are planned for March.
The case has drawn national attention due to Florida’s high execution rate, costs, and concerns over execution methods and systemic issues.
