CASPER, Wyo.—A judge says Dale Wayne Eaton, Wyoming’s only death-row inmate, is scheduled to be put to death on Feb. 12.
Natrona County District Judge David Park set the date during a death warrant hearing on Monday.
Diane Courselle, director of the University of Wyoming’s Defender Aid Program, says they’ll go to federal court to ask for a stay of execution.
Eaton has been on death row since 2004 for the kidnapping, rape and murder of 18-year-old Lisa Marie Kimmell, who disappeared in 1988 while driving from Denver to Billings, Mont.
The Wyoming Supreme Court has twice rejected appeals filed by Eaton’s attorneys.
