Summary of Offense:
Members of an inner-city gang in Richmond, Virginia, Corey Johnson, James H. Roane, Jr. and Richard Tipton were sentenced to death in February 1993 for their participation in a series of drug-related murders.
Johnson was sentenced to death for the murders of Dorothy Armstrong, Anthony Carter, Linwood Chiles, Louis Johnson, Peyton Johnson, Bobby Long, Douglas Talley and Curtis Thorne.
Execution dates were set for the three co-defendants in May 2006, but the executions have been stayed because of a challenge to the lethal injection process.
