Alabama has set an execution date for an inmate who dropped his appeals this summer and asked to be put to death.

On April 24, in the state of Alabama, an execution will be carried out on James Osgood. "A couple of years ago I really screwed up. I’m guilty and I deserve death. That’s what I want," the man said. In 2010,

Osgood was convicted in a case were he was accused of repeatedly raping Brown before and while he slashed her throat multiple times, the Montgomery Advertiser previously reported. Gov. Kay Ivey commuted the death sentence of Robin Dion "Rocky" Myers on Feb.

The Alabama Attorney General’s Office on Feb. 11 had asked the Alabama Supreme Court to approve Osgood’s execution. The court approved that request on March 11.
