Florida execution Frank Athen Walls.

A man convicted of fatally shooting a man and woman during home invasion robbery and later confessing to three other killings is scheduled to be put to death in December. Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is setting a record pace for executions, signed a death warrant Tuesday. Frank Athen Walls is scheduled to die by lethal injection Dec. 18 at Florida State Prison. Walls would be the 19th person set for execution in Florida in 2025, with DeSantis overseeing more executions in a single year than any other Florida governor since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976. The previous record was set in 2014 with eight executions. Walls was convicted of two counts of murder, two counts of kidnapping, burglary and theft and sentenced to death in 1988.
