Death Row Inmate Seeks Pardon

A Nebraska death row inmate is seeking to be pardoned from execution. Carey Dean Moore, Nebraska's longest serving death row inmate, was convicted of First Degree Murder in the 1979 shooting deaths of two cab drivers in Omaha. 

In his pardon request Moore writes:

"I am requesting a Full Pardon. I have been on Nebraska’s Death Row for over 37 years, and the State of Nebraska hasn’t been successful carrying out an execution on me; apparently, they do not want to execute me even though I haven’t filed any appeals in over 10 years. Therefore, since they are either lazy or incompetent to do their jobs or both, I should receive a Full Pardon.”

There are currently no pending appeals or stays of execution in state or federal courts for Moore. He has had a number of execution dates set, but the courts have stayed them. State officials are currently seeking to execute Moore, having notified him in January of the drugs they intend to use.

The State of Nebraska hasn't executed an inmate since Robert Williams was electrocuted in 1997. Williams was sentenced to death for killing three women. Since that execution, the state has adopted lethal injection as their method of execution.
