Justice Served: Johnny Johnson Executed for Casey Williamson's Murder
Johnny Johnson has been executed in Missouri for the murder of six-year-old Casey Williamson in July 2002. Johnson, who was found guilty of first-degree murder, kidnapping, armed criminal action, and attempted forcible rape, was put to death via lethal injection. His last statement expressed remorse for the pain he caused. Johnson's execution followed a temporary stay of sentence due to concerns about his mental competence, which was later overturned. This marks the fourth execution in Missouri in 2023.
