    Alabama death row inmates lose appeals

    The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals has rejected appeals by 2 death row inmates from Montgomery and St. Clair counties.

    Melvin Davis argued that he didn't have effective legal representation at his capital murder trial, but the appeals court disagreed Friday. Davis was convicted of shooting to death Timothy Ray and John Bradley and seriously injuring Eugene Smith in Montgomery in 1996.

    Harvey Windsor also argued that he had ineffective counsel at his capital murder trial, but the appeals court rejected that. Windsor was convicted in 1992 in the robbery and slaying of Rayford Howard in St. Clair County.

    Essex woman fights to save husband on death row

    An Essex woman whose husband is on death row in the US has said she will not give up the fight to clear his name.

    Pat Windsor, 55, from Pitsea, has already spent thousands of pounds trying to prove the innocence of Harvey Windsor, 47, who was convicted in 1988 over two robberies in which two men were murdered with a shotgun.

    Now she is now trying to raise more money to find a lawyer who will take on his case.
