Florida to Execute Prisoner Who Killed His Cellmate to Get a Death Sentence

Florida is scheduled to execute James Robertson at noon on October 13, 2026, for killing his cellmate, Frank Hart, at Charlotte Correctional Institution in 2008. Robertson strangled Hart with socks, telling investigators he wanted a first-degree murder charge and a death sentence because he was tired of prison life. He was sentenced to death in 2012 and later waived appeals and post-conviction proceedings. If carried out, Robertson’s execution will be Florida’s 17th this year.
