About this listen
Join Lisa O’Brien and Michael Carnahan on Sunday, August 1, 2021 for Clear and Convincing podcast, Episode 18, State of Arkansas v. Marcel Wayne Williams. In April, 2017, Governor Asa Hutchins set execution dates for eight men on Arkansas death row. The primary reason for the governor’s decision was that each of the inmates had exhausted their state and federal post conviction remedies. In the media, the sole reason given was that the state’s supply of lethal injection drugs was about to expire. Marcel Wayne Williams was tried, convicted and sentenced to death for the November 20, 1994 kidnapping, robbery, rape and murder of Stacy Rae Errickson, a 22 year old mother of two. Williams kidnapped Stacy at gunpoint from a gas station in Jacksonville, Arkansas. Williams was arrested on November 29, 1994, days before Stacy’s body was found buried in a shallow grave. We’ll talk about Stacy’s murder, his arrest, trial and conviction and the course of his direct appeal and post-conviction claims. Finally, we’ll talk about his execution in April, 2017 and the delay caused by allegations that Jack Jones’ execution was botched.
