Carey Dale Grayson was executed in Alabama on November 21, 2024, becoming the third inmate in the U.S. to die by nitrogen gas. He was convicted for the 1994 murder of Vickie Lynn Deblieux, who was brutally killed by Grayson and three others. This execution marks the 22nd in the U.S. this year and the sixth in Alabama. Grayson’s death follows two previous nitrogen gas executions in Alabama, which have drawn criticism for their controversial nature. Grayson, 49, was pronounced dead at 6:33 p.m. He had a history of mental health issues, and a psychologist testified he was aware of his actions during the crime. Grayson’s co-defendants received life sentences after their death sentences were overturned.
