"Idaho Death Row Inmate Set for Execution After Decades"

Thomas Eugene Creech, one of the nation's longest-serving death row inmates, is set to be executed by lethal injection in Idaho for killing a fellow prisoner in 1981. Creech, who has spent nearly 50 years behind bars, has a history of multiple murders in three states. Despite his supporters' claims of personal growth and positive contributions to the prison community, his execution date has been a difficult and emotional prospect for those who have known him for years.
