Alabama Death Row Inmate Found Dead In His Cell
June 15, 2015
Alabama death row inmate John Milton Hardy, 43, was found dead in his cell at the Holman Correctional Facility in Atmore on Monday.
A corrections officer found Hardy unresponsive in his cell during an early morning security check. Medical officials responded, but were unable to revive Hardy. A corrections doctor pronounced him dead at 3:23 a.m.
Hardy and Ulysses Charles Sneed, 45, were both sentenced to death for the 1993 murder of Clarence Nugene Terry. Hardy and Sneed were convicted of killing Terry by shooting him multiple times during the armed robbery of a convenience store in Decatur where Terry was employed as a clerk.
Hardy’s body was turned over to the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences for an autopsy. The cause of death remains under investigation.

Maybe that will save the taxpayers a little money. Costs a WHOLE lot to keep ‘em on death row ’til their appeals run out.
Good!!
