佛罗里达州签死刑令：1998年女童绑架谋杀案罪犯 Crain 定于12月10日在州立监狱执行注射死刑
佛罗里达州州长 Ron DeSantis 于2026年11月10日在州府 Tallahassee 签署死刑执行令，定于12月10日下午6时在位于 Raiford 的佛罗里达州立监狱对 Willie Seth Crain Jr. 执行注射死刑。Crain 现年80岁。
1998年，希尔斯伯勒县7岁女童 Amanda Brown 遭绑架并被杀害，遗体至今未被找到。1999年，Crain 被陪审团裁定一级谋杀罪成立并判处死刑，绑架罪另判无期徒刑。此后案件历经多次上诉，刑期维持不变。
佛罗里达州最高法院已为本案排定加急审理日程：初审相关程序须在11月25日前完成，状书提交截止12月1日，以便在预定执行日期前处理最后的申诉。
在此之前，佛州已排定另外两场执行：Overton 定于11月19日，Gonzalez 定于12月1日。若三场执行如期完成，Crain 将成为佛罗里达州2026年执行的第22名死刑犯；该州今年已执行19人，追平历史年度纪录。
佛罗里达州是美国执行死刑最活跃的州之一。按州最高法院的加急日程，本案执行前的法律程序将在未来两周内密集进行，任何暂缓执行的裁定都会在12月10日之前作出。
Florida Signs Death Warrant for Willie Seth Crain Jr. in 1998 Amanda Brown Murder, Execution Set for December 10
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a death warrant on November 10, 2026, in Tallahassee scheduling Willie Seth Crain Jr. for execution by lethal injection at 6 p.m. on December 10 at Florida State Prison in Raiford. Crain is 80 years old.
In 1998, seven-year-old Amanda Brown of Hillsborough County was kidnapped and murdered; her body was never found. In 1999, a jury convicted Crain of first-degree murder and sentenced him to death, with a life sentence on the kidnapping charge. The sentence survived repeated appeals.
The Florida Supreme Court has set an expedited schedule for the case: initial proceedings are to conclude by November 25 and briefs are due by December 1, so final challenges can be resolved before the scheduled execution date.
Two other Florida executions are scheduled ahead of Crain's: Overton on November 19 and Gonzalez on December 1. If all proceed, Crain would be the 22nd person executed in Florida in 2026; the state has carried out 19 executions this year, tying its annual record.
Florida is among the most active death-penalty states in the country. Under the supreme court's expedited calendar, the remaining litigation in Crain's case will play out over the next two weeks, with any stay to be decided before December 10.
