    Jonathan Kyle Binney - South Carolina




    Summary of Offense:

    On November 14, 2002, Binney was sentenced to die for breaking into the Cherokee County home of Judy Southern and shooting her to death when she came home from work. "He raped his own three-month-old child, but decided he would rather go to jail as a murderer rather than as a child molester".

    The South Carolina Supreme Court denied a state PCR (habeas) petition for Jonathan Binney in an opinion issued on September 21, 2009.

    Apparently, Binney's death sentence has been reversed by a South Carolina Circuit Court judge.
