A former escort service owner who was set to die Monday by lethal injection, having being convicted in the killing of two Florida women, was granted a stay of execution.
Marshall Lee Gore was scheduled to die at the Florida State Prison at 6:00 p.m. for the slaying of Robyn Novick in 1988. But less than two hours before the procedure, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals approved a motion by Gore’s attorney.
Gore had also been sentenced to death in the 1988 slaying of Susan Roark.
A hearing will be held on Thursday in the case.
