Skillicorn's lawyers continue to seek stay

With the clock ticking down, lawyers for death row inmate Dennis Skillicorn are pulling out all the stops to try to prevent the state from executing him tonight. On Monday, the Missouri Supreme Court overruled a motion he filed last Wednesday for a stay pending a judgment from the U.S. Supreme Court on a petition for a writ of certiorari in Middleton et al. v. Missouri Department of Corrections. Skillicorn is scheduled to die at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday for his part in the August 1994 murder of Richard Drummond in Lafayette County.
