Man convicted of fatally stabbing his wife set to be 9th person executed this year in Florida

Dusty Ray Spencer, convicted of fatally stabbing his wife Karen in 1992, is set to be executed in Florida, marking the state's ninth execution this year. His appeals were denied by Florida and U.S. courts despite claims of health issues and advanced age. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has overseen a record number of executions in 2025.
