Texas Man Convicted in Triple Murder Executed Days After Co-Defendant
Ramey was the sixth inmate executed in Texas this year after his conviction relied largely on witness testimony and recovered murder weapons.
- On Wednesday, Texas Department of Criminal Justice officials executed Sean Olajuwa Ramey, 41, by lethal injection at the state penitentiary in Huntsville. Ramey became the sixth inmate executed in Texas this year for the 2005 murders of three people.
- In 2005, Ramey and LeJames Norman broke into a home in Edna, a town near Victoria, intending to steal cocaine. Celso Lopez, Tiffani Peacock, and Sam Roberts were fatally shot during the encounter.
- His 2007 conviction relied largely on witness testimony from Norman and Ramey's girlfriend, as Investigators located no physical DNA evidence. The girlfriend directed law enforcement to recover the two guns used in the murders.
- After a judge rejected a final legal bid on Monday, Ramey expressed devotion to God and thanked fellow death row inmates in his final statement. He was pronounced deceased on Wednesday evening.
- LeJames Norman, Ramey's co-defendant, was executed one week prior, becoming the fifth inmate put to death in Texas this year. The Texas Department is set to carry out three more lethal injections over the next two months.
