A man convicted of murdering a Baldwin County Sheriff’s deputy nearly 20 years ago is scheduled to be executed on Dec. 9.
According to a news release from Georgia Attorney General Sam Olens, Robert Wayne Holsey is scheduled to be executed at 7 p.m. on Dec. 9.
Hosley was convicted of murdering Deputy Will Robinson Dec. 17, 1995.
Holsey was charged and convicted of malice murder, felony murder and armed robbery, after he robbed a Milledgeville convenience store with a gun, and later shot and killed Robinson. The deputy had stopped Holsey’s car, because it matched the description provided by the store clerk.

When Robinson walked up to the car, Holsey fired his gun, shooting the deputy in the head and killing him.
Holsey was convicted by a jury in February 1997.
Hosley appealed for a new trial to several courts over 16 years, including a U.S. Supreme Court case in June 2013. All those requests were denied.
