Killer of Bobbie Jo Stinnett to be Executed

Lisa Montgomery, the woman convicted of killing Bobbie Jo Stinnett in Skidmore in December 2004, is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection by the Federal Government on December 8th, multiple news outlets report. She will be the first female inmate to be put to death by the Federal authorities in six decades. In July, the US Department of Justice resumed executions after a 20 year moratorium. 

The allegations stated that Montgomery drove from her Kansas home to Stinnett’s home in Skidmore under the guise of adopting a rat terrier puppy. When she arrived at the home, the defendant allegedly used a rope to strangle Stinnett, who was eight months pregnant; she then allegedly used a kitchen knife to cut the baby girl from the womb. Montgomery then allegedly took the child with her and attempted to pass off the girl as her own.
