    Joshua Bishop will be my guess. He's been without an appeal the longest. And there's Daniel Lucas who was Brandon Rhodes right hand both murdered a father and his two kids.

    I would have figured Brandon Jones would be next since he's the oldest death row inmate in the state and its better to take him out ASAP before he either crokes or goes senile

    It really depends on their DA's. Whichever DA files for a death warrant gets to go first. Some work faster than others. I think Joshua Bishop and Daniel Lucas will be after Terrell because thoes two are from the same circuit. Keep in mine Brandon Jones will not be far behind after going through all his appeals at his age, someone has a hard on for him. My guess will be be early January. The state of Georgia excuted the first inmate of the year and the last.

    It's a shame we can't just do it like Texas and do two or three in a single week would save time.

    I'm wondering if GA will bother with Jones giving his age. Hopefully they juice him

    Parole Board to hear clemency plea from Brian Keith Terrell

    By Rhonda Cook
    The Atlanta Journal Constitution

    The State Board of Pardons and Paroles said Monday it would hear a petition for clemency from Brian Keith Terrell next week, the day before he is to be executed for 2001 murder of an elderly friend of his mother.

    The Board has set aside next Monday to hear from Terrell’s attorneys. As is the practice, the prosecutor for Newton County and others who want Terrell’s sentence carried out will speak to the board in the afternoon.

    Terrell, 47, is scheduled to die by lethal injection at 7 p.m. next Monday
    for killing John Watson.

    Terrell had only been recently released from prison when he stole some of the 70-year-old man’s checks and made them out to himself. When Walton received copies of cancelled checks, totaling more than $8,700. Watson told Terrell’s mother he would not press charges if he paid back the money within two days, which Terrell agreed to do.

    Instead of giving back the money, Terrell waited for Watson to leave his house for a dialysis appointment. He fired four times at Watson but only a ricocheting bullet hit the elderly man in the leg. Terrell chased him down, shooting him again and beating him so severely that a broken bone impaled his brain.

    Man set to die Tuesday again challenges Georgia’s execution drug

    A lawyer for condemned murderer Brian Keith Terrell is again raising questions about the compounded lethal injection drug that Georgia uses in executions.

    Terrell is scheduled to die on Tuesday. He was originally slated for execution on March 10, one week after the scheduled execution of female death row inmate Kelly Gissendaner.

    Both of those executions were put on hold temporarily when the compounded lethal injection drug, pentobarbital, turned cloudy. But Gissendaner was eventually executed in September after the state decided the drug’s cloudiness was caused by how it was stored, not how it was made.

    Now, in an appeal filed Thursday in Fulton County Superior Court, Terrell’s attorney argues the Georgia Department of Corrections never truly discovered what caused the problem, so the agency continues to insist cold temperatures caused clumps to form in the pentobarbital.

    Terrell’s lawyer, Bo King, wrote in the appeal that information obtained under the Georgia Open Records Act indicate there were problems with two batches of pentobarbital, not just one, suggesting the cloudiness might not be an isolated incident.

    “It is only a matter of time before the drugs — compounded by an unknown pharmacy using unknown ingredients in unknown circumstances — become defective again,” King wrote.

    The attorney also wrote that the defense team’s expert on compounding drugs reviewed state records but was limited by Georgia’s secrecy law. The drug expert, Michael Jay, decided other circumstances could have caused the problem with the pentobarbital.

    Jay, a professor of pharmaceutical sciences and bio-medical engineering at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, wrote in a document attached to Terrell’s appeal that if officials had not noticed a problem with the drug and had used it as intended in March, Gissendaner — and later Terrell — would have suffered excruciating pain.

    Jay wrote that he suspects the compounding pharmacist who made those batches of drugs used the wrong active ingredient — pentobarbital rather than pentobarbital sodium. Either that, or the pH solution in the compounded drug was incorrect.

    If those executions had been carried out using the drugs, Jay wrote, it’s possible that particulate matter in the pentobarbital would have lodged in blood vessels or the lungs. It would be akin to being injected with “very small pieces of glass,” Jay wrote.

    The sources of Georgia’s lethal injection drug, and the state secrecy shrouding that information, is an issue that has been raised several times in appeals. Repeatedly the courts have upheld the use of pentobarbital and have ruled that Georgia can keep secret its drug sources to protect pharmacists from public pressure.

    Terrell is scheduled to be executed at 7 p.m. Tuesday for the 1992 murder of John Watson, his mother’s friend. Terrell stole about $8,700 from the 70-year-old man by stealing blank checks. Watson told Terrell’s mother he wouldn’t press charges if Terrell returned most of the money. Two days later, Terrell attacked Watson as he left his Newton County house for a dialysis appointment.

    Fulton Superior Court Judge Ural Glanville will hold a hearing Monday on Terrell’s latest appeal. At the same time, the state Board of Pardons and Paroles will hear his petition for clemency.

    Terrell Execution Media Advisory - Inmate’s Last Meal

    FORSYTH, Ga. – Condemned murderer Bryan Keith Terrell is scheduled for execution by lethal injection at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, December 8, 2015, at Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Prison in Jackson. Terrell was sentenced to death for the 1992 murder of John Watson in Newton County.

    Media witnesses for the execution are: Rhonda Cook, Atlanta Journal Constitution; Kate Brumback, Associated Press; Elly Yu, WABE; Aimee Jones, Newton County Citizen.

    Terrell declined to request a last meal. He will be receiving the institutional tray consisting of chicken and rice, rutabagas, seasoned turnip greens, dry white beans, cornbread, bread pudding and fruit punch.

    There have been 58 men and one woman executed in Georgia since the U.S. Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1973. If executed, Terrell will be the 37th inmate put to death by lethal injection. There are presently 77 men on death row in Georgia.

    The Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Prison is located 45 minutes south of Atlanta off Interstate 75. From Atlanta, take exit 201 (Ga. Hwy. 36), turn left over the bridge and go approximately ¼ mile. The entrance to the prison is on the left. Media covering the execution will be allowed into the prison’s media staging area beginning at 5 p.m. on Tuesday.

    Georgia will give pretty much anything as a last meal. They granted Gissendaner's huge meal. Just another bad decision by this guy
