In Florida, a criminal who fatally shot a newly married couple in front of their young child almost 30 years ago finally faced consequences with the state’s first execution of the year. The couple’s daughter, now an adult, shared her memories of the tragic events.
James D. Ford, aged 64, received a lethal injection at Florida State Prison on Feb. 13 for killing Greg Malnory, 25, and his wife Kimberly, 26. Governor Ron DeSantis authorized the execution on Jan. 10.
“I believe that I missed out on experiencing a lot of parental love,” expressed Maranda Malnory, who was just a toddler of 22 months when she witnessed her parents being murdered, in an interview with Fox News Digital following the execution.
“I don’t want to say it was closure because it’s not closure, but it’s peace of mind knowing that he could never, ever get out and come find me… I’m the sole survivor.”
I fight every day to show him that he doesn’t get to win.”
