Man Gets Life For Molino Murder
January 25, 2015
Zachary Greer has been sentenced to life in prison for the 2013 first degree murder of Harvey Ray Smith.
His co-defendant, 24-year old Debra Burge, has pleaded no contest in September to a lesser charge of second degree murder charge in the death of Harvey Ray Smith. She will be sentenced this week.
The body of Smith, age 43 of Pace, was found stuffed into a trunk behind a Motel 6 on Davis Highway on the morning of May4, 2013. Smith had been reported missing in Santa Rosa County. Family members located his vehicle at the motel and then discovered the body.
Reports state Burge and Greer conspired to rob Smith. Burge allegedly lured Smith, her acquaintance, to her home in the 3900 block of Highway 97 in Molino. She told deputies she went inside while Smith and Greer remained outside. When she later exited the home, she found Smith on the ground of the Molino home bleeding. She told Sheriff’s investigators that Greer told her he stabbed Smith and put his body in the trunk of the car that was later driven to the Motel 6 on Davis Highway in Pensacola.
Greer was convicted of first degree murder in a jury trial.

She should also get life in prison. It sucks that they both equally commit a crime but the punishment is unequal. But in the bright side the new secretary for the department of corrections will make sure they are both happy and healthy.
People really believe they can get away with murder these days? Just to steal a few dollars or a car or whatever it is they want that doesnt belong to them. What a shame.
Justice has been served. The only thing better than the outcome of this is if this guy would have had to suffer just as Ray did. At least he has the rest of his natural life to think about Ray.
Threw their lives away because they have no respect for life or the law…misery awaits both of you because of stupid choices.
