A man convicted of killing a Coral Gables police officer in 1978 is appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court to stay his Sept. 6 execution.
Sixty-one-year-old Manuel Valle is headed for a state execution chamber next month after the Florida Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that the state's new drug used in lethal injections is constitutional.
Experts witnesses will take the stand Tuesday in a Miami courtroom in hearing to determine if Manuel Valle should be put to death by lethal injection for the murder of a Coral Gables police officer.
The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected an appeal by Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to lift a stay of execution the Florida Supreme Court issued for Manuel Valle.
