    Robbie Dexter Locklear - North Carolina Death Row




    Facts of the Crime:

    Locklear was sentenced to death for the murder of his stepfather, Jay Charles Taylor, in January 1994. Defendant was indicted by a Robeson County grand jury for the first-degree murder of James Charles Taylor. He was tried capitally, and the jury returned a verdict of guilty of first-degree murder. In a capital sentencing proceeding conducted pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 15A-2000, the jury found as an aggravating circumstance that defendant had previously been convicted of a felony involving the use of violence to the person. No juror found any mitigating circumstance. The jury recommended and the trial court imposed a sentence of death.
