A Florida man, Curtis Wilkie Beasley, 77, is executed by lethal injection at Florida State Prison for the 1995 murder of Carolyn Monfort at her home near Dundee, south of Orlando. He is convicted of first-degree murder and related charges, including robbery and grand theft auto.
Reports say Monfort is killed during the attack at her residence, and that her daughter discovers her body afterward. The two outlets describe the killing as involving a hammer and characterize it as brutal.
While both sources focus on the execution and the circumstances of the 1995 death, they provide broadly similar details and do not introduce materially different factual claims about the case. Coverage centers on the conviction, the method and timing of execution, the victim’s discovery by her daughter, and the location of the crime in Florida.
