A St. Louis man scheduled to die next Tuesday received a last-minute stay of execution yesterday — with the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals saying the state of Missouri cannot yet proceed with the execution of Johnny Johnson. Johnson was sentenced to death in 2005 for the murder of six-year-old Casey Williamson in suburban Valley Park.
