With his execution drawing near, Missouri inmate David Hosier is “accepting his fate.”
With his execution drawing near, Missouri inmate David Hosier is “accepting his fate,” his spiritual adviser said Tuesday. Hosier, 69, is scheduled to be put to death at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the state prison in Bonne Terre for the 2009 deaths of Angela Gilpin, a woman he had an affair with, and her husband, Rodney Gilpin. Hosier's lawyers said no court appeals are pending. Gov. Mike Parson on Monday turned down a clemency request, citing in part Hosier's lack of remorse.
After the shootings, police found an application for a protective order in Angela Gilpin’s purse, and another document in which she expressed fear that Hosier might shoot her and her husband. Hosier was an immediate suspect, but police couldn’t find him. They used cellphone data to track him to Oklahoma. A chase ensued when an Oklahoma officer tried to stop Hosier’s car. When he got out, he told the officers, “Shoot me, and get it over with,” court records show.
