DRAPER, Utah — The Utah Department of Corrections said it is prepared to carry out the lethal injection execution of Taberon Honie.
Honie is facing execution for the 1998 murder of Claudia Benn, the mother of his ex-girlfriend. Iron County prosecutors said he broke into Benn's home, where she tried to protect herself with a knife. Prosecutors alleged he took the knife, slit her throat and sexually assaulted her. Her grandchildren witnessed the gruesome murder.
Corrections officials argue it is unnecessary to update the protocols, except for some minor changes like noting the new location of the Utah State Prison.
