State Scheduled Execution

A man convicted of the 1992 rape and bludgeoning death of a woman is scheduled to be put to death Thursday in Alabama's first execution more than two years.  43-year-old Christopher Eugene Brooks is to receive a lethal injection at 6 p.m.  Brooks was condemned for the death of 23-year-old Jo Deann Campbell.  Prosecutors said Campbell was beaten in her apartment with an 8 pound dumbell and sexually assaulted.  Alabama's last execution was in 2013.  It's to be the first using the state's new lethal drug combination.
