Shelby County DA seeks death penalty for Memphis shooter Ezekiel Kelly.
District Attorney Steve Mulroy announced that he will pursue the death penalty against Ezekiel Kelly, the man accused of killing three and injuring several others during a shooting rampage in Memphis last year. Mulroy said this would be his first death penalty motion, and while he is against the death penalty, he says by law, it is necessary. Kelly had been released from jail on March 16 last year after serving 11 months of a three-year sentence for an aggravated assault plea.
