Grayson’s three accomplices managed to escape execution because they were under 18 at the time of Deblieux’s murder

The execution is the 22nd in the U.S. this year and the sixth in Alabama, which has put three of the men to death using nitrogen gas.

Grayson was convicted with three other men for the brutal slaying and mutilation of 37-year-old Vicki Lynn Deblieux.
