A Hardin County jury has issued a unanimous verdict of death for Michael St. Clair, 54, white, for capital kidnapping and other charges in connection with 1991 abduction and murder of Frank Brady. The Hardin Circuit Court jury was empanelled following a reversal by the Kentucky Supreme Court on April 22, 2010 (see).  St. Clair and an accomplice, both escapees from an Oklahoma jail, embarked on a deadly multi-state crime spree. On Oct. 6, 1991, St. Clair and his accomplice abducted Brady at a Hardin County rest stop. The pair took Brady to an isolated area in Bullitt County where St. Clair shot him multiple times. Jurors also heard testimony about 4 additional murders committed by St. Clair prior to his escape. Sentencing before Special Judge Tom Castlen is scheduled for February 1, 2012 in Hardin Circuit Court. St. Clair is currently on death row at the Kentucky State Penitentiary in Eddyville after being sentenced to death on November 16, 2011 following a conviction in Bullitt Circuit Court in the execution-style slaying of Brady.
