Victim's Mother Wants Rounds To Allow Execution Now
The mother of the man killed by Elijah Page and 2 other men wants
Governor Rounds to reconsider his stay and go through with the execution
right away.
Dottie Poage says the delay shows a lack of respect for her family because
it came just hours before Page was scheduled to die.
In a written statement, Rounds said he can't imagine the pain the Poage
family has endured but the decision was justified and not political.
Rounds expects Page to be put to death almost immediately after the stay
of execution expires July 1st.
