Georgia Execution of Rapist-Killer 'Most Deserving,' Says DA

The execution in Georgia of Marcus Johnson for the 1994 rape and murder of Angela Sizemore – who was stabbed 41 times with a dull knife – was "most deserving," said the district attorney who prosecuted the case.

Johnson, 50, had appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court for a reprieve, but his requests were denied and his execution was carried late Thursday, The Washington Post reported.
