Arizona Death Row Inmate Aaron Gunches Requests Execution for February 14 for 2002 Killing of Ted Price, Citing Delays
Jan 4, 2025, 10:01 PM
Aaron Brian Gunches, a death row inmate in Arizona, has requested the state Supreme Court to schedule his execution for February 14, 2025. In a handwritten filing, Gunches, who is representing himself, claimed that his execution is 'long overdue' and accused the state of delaying the legal process. He stated that the court should bypass the usual legal paperwork and hearings sought by Attorney General Kris Mayes, directing the Arizona Department of Corrections to proceed with the execution. Gunches was previously set to be executed in April 2023, but the execution was postponed due to the state's lack of personnel trained to carry out executions. His case marks a potential resumption of the death penalty in Arizona after a two-year hiatus while the state reviewed its procedures.
