COBB COUNTY, GA — A Georgia death row inmate scheduled for execution next week is asking a Cobb County court for a new sentencing trial.

Stacey Humphreys, 53, was convicted of malice murder after being found guilty in the 2003 killings of 33-year-old Cyndi Williams and 21-year-old Lori Brown.

Williams and Brown were working inside a model home’s sales office in a new Powder Springs subdivision in November 2003 when Humphreys entered.

Investigators say Humphreys is accused of forcing Williams and Brown to remove their clothes and provide their bank PINs before shooting and killing them. He is then accused of taking their driver’s licenses and bank and credit cards.

At the time, officials said Humphreys was on parole for a felony theft conviction.

Humphreys’ defense team claims a dishonest juror improperly forced a death sentence.

Officials say Humphreys would be the first person executed in Georgia this year.

The death warrant for Humphreys expired in December. A ruling is expected by the end of the day on Thursday.
