 Michael Herring from SRN News. The state of Alabama has agreed to foretell an autopsy of a Muslim inmate scheduled to be executed. Edmund Gavin said the post-mortem procedure would violate his religious beliefs. The 64-year-old inmate is scheduled to be executed July 18th by lethal injection at a South Alabama prison. Gavin was convicted of capital murder for the 1998 shooting death of William Clayton Jr. in Cherokee County in Northeast Florida.
