Federal judge declines halt to Barnabei execution
A federal judge in Virginia refused to issue a stay of execution for Derek R. Barnabei. The ruling rejects defense claims of deliberate tampering and missing evidence in the 1993 rape and murder of Sarah Wisnosky, a freshman at Old Dominion University. Governor Gilmore backed DNA evidence tying Barnabei to the crime, and a pending appeal and ongoing Virginia State Police probe frame the case as Barnabei's last path to avert the death sentence.
