72岁的丹尼尔·欧文·科纳汉二世（Daniel Owen Conahan Jr）因1996年绑架并勒死理查德·艾伦·蒙哥马利而被判处死刑，定于本周四由注射方式执行1。该案与1990年代南佛罗里达的一系列疑似杀人事件相关，这些案件在当地被称为"Hog Trail Murders"，受害者遗骸在Charlotte县沼泽地带被发现1。
科纳汉于1996年7月被捕，1999年8月被法官认定有罪1。执法部门在该沼泽地发现了至少6人遗骸，跨越3年时间1。尽管科纳汉自2025年3月以来一直请求进行DNA检测，但佛罗里达最高法院上周驳回了他的最终上诉1。他坚称无辜，主张控方证据为间接证据，并表示仍有一份上诉在美国最高法院等待裁决1。
佛州在2025年已执行19次死刑，创该州历史纪录，占美国今年24次执刑的一半以上1。这次执行将是该州今年的相关案件之一1。
Daniel Owen Conahan Jr., a 72-year-old Florida inmate, is set to be executed by lethal injection on Thursday for the 1996 kidnapping and murder of Richard Allen Montgomery.1 Conahan was arrested in July 1996 and convicted by a judge in August 1999.1 The case is linked to a series of suspected killings known as the Hog Trail Murders, during which the remains of at least six individuals were discovered over a three-year span in swampy areas of Charlotte County.1
Despite maintaining his innocence and arguing that evidence against him is circumstantial, Conahan has exhausted most legal avenues.1 He has requested DNA testing since March 2025, but Florida's Supreme Court rejected his final appeal last week.1 One additional appeal remains pending before the U.S. Supreme Court.1 If the execution proceeds as scheduled, Conahan will become the 15th person executed in Florida this year, part of a record-setting pace—the state has carried out 19 executions in 2025, accounting for more than half of the 24 executions conducted nationwide this year.1
