The Associated Press is reporting that convicted D.C. sniper John Allen Muhammad has been given an execution date: Prince William County Circuit Judge Mary Grace O’Brien ordered the execution will take place November 10, a Tuesday, so that “courts would be open the day before in case they have to take up last-minute appeals.” Muhammad attorney told reporters that his client will appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court and ask Gov. Tim Kaine for clemency. Muhammad was sentence to death for the killing of Dean Meyers, one of ten people who were shot dead by the sniper in the Washington metro area during a three-week period in October, 2002. Lee Boyd Malvo, his accomplice, was sentenced to life in prison.
