The execution was the third in Arizona since the state resumed carrying out the death penalty in May.
, 76, died by lethal injection at the state prison in Florence for his murder convictions in the killings of William"Pat" Redmond and his mother-in-law, Helen Phelps, at Redmond's home in Phoenix. Redmond's wife, Marilyn, also was shot in the head during the attack but survived and testified against Hooper at his trial.
Authorities say the killings were carried out at the behest of a man who wanted to take over Redmond's printing business. Hooper has maintained that he is innocent for four decades and suggested he was framed for the crimes. Kelly Culshaw, an assistant federal public defender representing Hooper, said in a statement last month that he was sentenced and convicted"based on corrupt police practices and unreliable witness testimony.
They had asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review his claim that authorities had until recently withheld that Marilyn Redmond had failed to identify him in a photo lineup. However, authorities say that claim is based on a mistake a prosecutor made in a letter to the state's clemency board and now insist that no such lineup was shown to Marilyn Redmond.Authorities say Hooper and two other men forced their way into the Redmond home on Dec. 31, 1980.
