More than eight years after he originally was scheduled to die, the U.S. government is moving forward with plans to execute Ronald Gray.
Gray, a former soldier who was convicted in a series of rapes and murders in Fayetteville and Fort Bragg more than 25 years ago, lost a court battle to keep in effect a stay of execution first granted by a U.S. District Court in Kansas in November 2008.
Earlier this week, Judge J. Thomas Marten ruled the stay was no longer in effect and denied Gray's request to further block the military from moving forward with the death sentence.
