Supreme Court grants 60-day extension for Rowan Ford's killer's lawyers to respond to request to set execution date


A Missouri Supreme Court decision on whether to set an execution date for Chris Collings, who raped and murdered 9-year-old Rowan Ford of Stella in 2007 won't be coming anytime soon.

The court granted a 60-day extension of time to Collings' public defender attorneys who said they needed more time to respond to Attorney General Andrew Bailey's request to set an execution date.







The delay has nothing to do with the Collings case, according to the motion, which was filed Friday. Both lawyers who are working on Collings case are bogged down with other capital cases, including the filing of a clemency petition to Gov. Mike Parson for David Hosier, who is scheduled to be executed June 11.

With the extension, the new deadline for responding to the execution request is July 1.

He has lived more years than she was old when he killed her.
Sort of seems to me like a good execution date would be tomorrow.

Chris Collings does not deserve a 60-day extension this Bastard should have been killed years ago. We give Criminals to many chances in our PC (Political Correct) Society. Stop being Soft on Criminals and Feel Sorry for the Victims. Rowan Ford never got a chance to live her life - Chris Collings should not be allowed any more time to live out his life.
