He&#39;s scheduled to be executed September 10th and here&#39;s why.</strong></p><p>Between 1993 and 1996, bodies started turning up in the woods of Charlotte County, Florida — transients, hitchhikers, and gay men lured deep into remote pine and palmetto with the promise of a paid photo shoot, then tied to a tree and strangled. With Conahan&#39;s execution date approaching, Madison walks JT (who, as always, knows nothing going in) through the whole case: the victims who took decades to name, the dog named Hollywood who kept bringing bones home, the Fort Myers 8, the two men who got away and weren&#39;t believed, and the 1999 trial that put Conahan on death row for the murder of 21-year-old Richard Allen Montgomery.</p>
