Florida Executes Death Row Inmate
The execution marks the fifth in Florida this year under the administration of Governor Ron DeSantis.
Willacy was convicted of first-degree murder after he was caught burglarizing Sather's home, subsequently striking her with a blunt object and setting her on fire while she was still alive.
The case has been the subject of numerous appeals over nearly four decades, highlighting the protracted nature of the death penalty process in the United States.
Sather's family attended the execution and stated that they had waited a long time for justice to be served.
