Herbert Richardson was executed for the bombing murder of Rena Mae Callins, 11 in Dothan, Alabama in August, 1977.

At about 6:00 A.M. on August 16, 1977, a bomb exploded on the front porch of Doris Wymes' home in Dothan, Alabama, killing Rena Mae, who was Wymes' niece and had spent the previous night at her aunt's home. The only witness to the explosion, a twelve year old friend of Rena Mae's, testified that the two girls had come out to the porch that morning and had seen what looked like a drink can in a plastic bag. The device detonated when the victim pulled her arm back as she prepared to throw the object away. Her right hand and a quarter of her skull were blown away from her body by the force of the explosion.

The evidence clearly reflected that Richardson was responsible for the bombing. Wymes had ended a relationship with Richardson in May 1977 after learning he was still married to his second wife. Richardson continued to harass and threaten Wymes and her family. One week before Rena Mae was killed, Richardson had thrown an object from his car into Wymes' yard where it exploded on the ground.

On August 15, 1977, Wymes mother received a threatening letter in the mail from Richardson. Rena Mae's brother testified that early on the morning of August 16th, he saw Richardson watching Wymes' house. Richardson was employed as an electrician. A week before the explosion at issue here, he told two co-workers that he had made a bomb and set it off in a field.

A search of Richardson's car and his home revealed the materials necessary for making bombs, like the one that killed the child. A number of the items recovered during the searches matched fragments of the bomb found at Wymes' house. Police also found a library book entitled Explosives and Bomb Disposal Guide at Richardson's residence.

Herbert Richardson was a perpetrator, *not* a victim.
