    Dewey Joe Duff - California Death Row




    Summary of Offense:

    Duff, a career criminal with eight previous felony convictions, was sent to death row for the February 23, 1998 murders of Roscoe Riley, 32, and Brandon Hagan, 21. Testimony showed Duff was angry at Riley for not being paid as the middleman in a gun deal. The day of the slayings, the three men were in Riley’s car when Duff asked Riley to stop at a bar so he could use the restroom. When he returned he got into the rear seat, then shot both men in the back of the head.

    Duff was sentenced to death in Sacramento County on March 8, 2002.
