A man sentenced to death for the 1995 shooting death of a Baldwin County sheriff’s deputy could be put to death as early as summer 2013, said Fred Bright, district attorney for the Ocmulgee Judicial Circuit. A panel of three judges from the U.S. 11th Circuit Court of Appeals have denied relief for Robert Wayne Holsey, the man convicted in the slaying of deputy Will Robinson, Bright said. Holsey’s lawyers had argued he received ineffective assistance from his trial attorneys during the sentencing phase of his trial, according to the ruling issued Sept. 13. Holsey has until Oct. 4 to file a petition requesting that the full court hear his case. If he’s denied or if the court rules against him, he has 90 days to file a request that the U.S. Supreme Court hear his case, Bright said.
