Alabama set to execute man for fatal shooting of a delivery driver during a 1998 robbery attempt

Keith Edmund Gavin, 64, faces execution in Alabama for the 1998 murder of delivery driver William Clayton Jr Gavin, a Muslim, avoided a post-execution autopsy on religious grounds. Convicted in 1998, Gavin’s death sentence was upheld despite claims of ineffective counsel and a traumatic upbringing. His execution marks Alabama’s third this year and the 10th in the US.
