Supreme Court sets execution date for Daniel Siebert

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - The Alabama Supreme Court has set an Oct. 25 execution date
for Danial Lee Siebert for the 1986 murders in Talladega of a deaf student and her
two children.
The Supreme Court on Monday granted a petition from the Alabama Attorney General's
office asking it set an execution date for the 53-year-old Siebert, who has been
on death row for 20 years.
Siebert was sentenced to death for the Feb. 19, 1986 strangulation deaths of Sherri
Weathers, 24, and her two sons, 5-year-old Chad and 4-year-old Joey.
Weathers was a student at the Alabama School for the Deaf in Talladega and had been
dating Siebert. The bodies were found in her Talladega apartment several days after
the three were killed.
Siebert was also convicted of capital murder in the death of Linda Jarman, a neighbor
of Weathers, who was killed the same night.
Siebert was arrested six months later in Hurricane Mills, Tenn., following a manhunt
in which police said he used several aliases and traveled to locations including
Elizabethtown, Ky., Atlantic City, N.J., and New Kent County, Va.
Assistant Attorney General Clay Crenshaw said Siebert has exhausted all of his appeals
for the killing of Weathers and her children.
Siebert has filed a federal lawsuit challenging Alabama's method of execution, lethal
injection. In papers filed with the Supreme Court, the attorney general's office
asked that Siebert's execution not be delayed because of the pending lawsuit.
In the lawsuit, Siebert claims that the way Alabama administers lethal injection
could cause him severe pain. He also says in the lawsuit that he has been given a
preliminary diagnosis that he suffers from hepatitis C and pancreatic cancer, which
the suit says could cause complications with the lethal injection procedure.
Siebert's attorneys could not immediately be reached for comment.
