Stanko is executed after clemency is denied
SUMMARY: Stephen Stanko, 57, was executed by lethal injection in South Carolina for two 2005 murders: he shot a friend in Horry County and killed his girlfriend in Georgetown County after raping her daughter, who survived a throat-slashing. Stanko apologized in a final statement and asked not to be judged by his worst day. His execution, South Carolina’s sixth in nine months, followed a brief halt due to drug availability. He declined the firing squad after concerns arose from a prior execution. Appeals and a clemency request were denied. Victims’ families and his lawyer witnessed the execution. He died 28 minutes after it began.
