Georgia to Hang Four Youths in Separate Death Sentences

Four young men in Georgia face execution on January 29 and March 2 for murders in Taylor and Putnam counties. Gervis Bloodworth and Willie Jones await the electric chair in Milledgeville after a 1923 killing in Taylor County, while Ted Coggeshall and Syd McClelland, sentenced in Eatonton, are to die in the electric chair for the Putnam County school superintendent murder. Governors and higher courts have twice delayed or paused other clemency efforts. The case spans Muscogee and Putnam counties, with earlier appeals and a last-minute injunction staving off one scheduled hanging.
