Mississippi Supreme Court blocks today's execution of Willie Jerome Manning. Manning had been set to die by injection shortly after 6 p.m. CDT at the state prison in Parchman for the 1992 slayings of 2 college students, Tiffany Miller and John Steckler. The court said the execution should be delayed until it rules further on the case. The FBI has said in recent days that there were errors in agent's testimony about ballistics tests and hair analysis in the case. Manning was convicted in 1994.
