One day before he’s scheduled to be executed, a Missouri death row inmate (Marcellus Williams) could learn whether his fate will change after the state’s Supreme Court heard arguments in his case Monday.

The Missouri Supreme Court will hear arguments as attorneys working on behalf of Marcellus Williams seek to save him, just a day before his scheduled execution

Hope lingers for Missouri death row inmate Marcellus Williams who was convicted of the 1998 murder of local news reporter Lisa Gayle despite lack of forensics linking him to the crime.

The Missouri Supreme Court on Monday is scheduled to hear arguments in the case involving Marcellus Williams, the death row inmate who has long maintained his innocence, a day before he is set to be executed.

The execution of Marcellus Williams should be stopped so a circuit court can look more closely at evidence that a potential juror in his murder trial was excluded based on race, Williams’ attorney told the Missouri Supreme Court on Monday.
