No footnotes date January 2011 EdwardEarl Johnson 1961 &ndash May 20, 1987 was a man convicted and executed by the U.S. state of Mississippi for the murder of a policeman, J.T. Trest and the sexual assault of a 69 year old woman, Sally Franklin. Throughout his eight years on death row he continued to plead his innocence. Case His case came to international attention when he was featured in the BBC documentary Fourteen Days In May . Broadcast in 1987, the documentary showed the last two weeks of Johnson s life. It starts on May 6, the day that Johnson learns the date of his execution. In interviews he says that his confession was made under duress, with police threatening him with death. The book, Life on Death Row Thomas, 1991 details the events leading up to and following the Johnson trial. Thomas shows the key witness for the prosecution to be unreliable, changing her story and identification of her assailant several times at the time of the event and in subsequent questioning. Execution In spite of British people British lawyer Clive Stafford Smith s attempts for a reprieve, Edward was executed the documentary team were given access to him until minutes before the sentence was carried out . A follow up documentary by Stafford Smith claimed to prove conclusively that Johnson was innocent and had been framed. He was pronounced dead at 12 06 a.m. on May 20, 1987 after being put to death in the gas chamber of what was then called Mississippi State Penitentiary Parchman Prison Farm . It was the second execution by the state of Mississippi since the Gregg v. Georgia decision and the 72nd overall in the United States.
