TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - A man convicted of murdering a Florida Panhandle man and raping the man's wife during a home invasion is scheduled to die Jan. 15.
Gov. Rick Scott signed a death warrant Monday for 42-year-old Johnny Shane Kormondy.
Authorities say Kormondy and two accomplices forced their way at gunpoint into the Pensacola home of Gary McAdams and his wife one early morning in July 1993. The men repeatedly raped McAdams' wife, and then Kormondy shot McAdams in the back of the head.
Officials say Kormondy recruited the accomplices, provided the transportation and surveilled the McAdams' neighborhood. Kormondy also threatened to kill witnesses who testified at his trial.
Kormondy's accomplices, Curtis Buffkin and James Hazen, are both serving life sentences for their parts in the attack.
