Omschrijving

Roger Dale Stafford: Serial Spree Killer

Roger Dale Stafford was convicted of nine murders in Oklahoma in 1978 and executed in 1995, but his case raises enduring questions about accomplice testimony, wrongful convictions, and the death penalty. This comprehensive examination explores the horrific crimes—the roadside ambush of the Lorenz family and the massacre of six Sirloin Stockade employees—alongside the controversial prosecution that relied heavily on testimony from Stafford's wife and accomplice, Verna. The book traces Stafford's seventeen years of appeals, his persistent claims of innocence, and the dramatic posthumous message he arranged to be mailed after his execution, ensuring his protests would outlive him. Through meticulous analysis of trial records, appellate decisions, and the evidentiary disputes that dominated the case, this work examines how the criminal justice system weighs evidence, evaluates accomplice credibility, and determines guilt beyond reasonable doubt in capital cases. The narrative illuminates broader systemic issues including the reliability of cooperation agreements, the difficulty of proving innocence after conviction, and the irreversible finality of execution when questions remain unresolved. This is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the complexities, controversies, and human costs of America's death penalty system.
