Death Row for 18 Year Old Cobb After Delayed Executions

Preston Cobb Jr. now 18 has waited almost three years for execution for the 1961 slaying of Frank C. Dumas Sr., a 70 year old white farmer. The case prompted debate over juvenile death penalties and drew appeals, pleas from Eleanor Roosevelt and others, and criticism of Jasper County jury selection. Cobb remains on death row at Reidsville State Prison as hearings and appeals plan a new trial.
