So basically this was a double homicide that occurred in 1980. Two women were killed, best friends. The killer was one of the women's cousin. The trial happened around 2000 and the man was sentenced to execution by electric chair but The other women's ( the not cousin) husband sued some state officials and spared the guy the death penalty and the assailant is still in prison. The husband lives in Oregon but this happened when his wife was out of state to visit her parents and stopped by to visit a friend. The friends cousin was drunk and broke in at night and killed both. He had no prior major criminal history according to the man.


Its supposed to be a fairly well known case with many google results, but I can't find anything? Can anyone identify this case?

Glancing through, it had to be Georgia or Ohio. Good hunting.
