Delay Execution Of Tony Vettere In Butte Murder Case
The Montana Supreme Court has stayed Tony Vettere's hanging after a second appeal asks for a sanity examination. Vettere was convicted for fatally shooting Antone Favero in Meaderville last November, with the court upholding the district court and setting August 27 for execution before the stay. The appeal argues Vettere's mental state and incoherence in court.
