Virginia: Rejection

The Washington Post reports:

Convicted killer Kevin Green was scheduled to be put to death at 9 p.m. Earlier tonight, the U.S. Supreme Court turned down his request for a stay of execution and Virginia Gov. Timothy M. Kaine (D) denied a petition for clemency. He said he had carefully reviewed the case but found "no compelling reason to set aside the sentence that was recommended by the jury.''
