DS, one page, 8.5 x 14, March 30, 1990. Clinton sets an execution date for convicted murderer David Lee Starr. In part: “David Lee Starr was duly presented under proper proceedings…and after being tried in that Court by a duly empaneled jury was found guilty and his punishment fixed at death…Now, Therefore, I, Bill Clinton, by virtue of the power and authority vested in me by law as governor of the State of Arkansas, do hereby set April 25, 1990, as the day and date upon which the Commissioner (Director) of the Arkansas Department of Correction will carry into effect the judgement and sentence of the Phillips County Circuit Court by executing David Lee Starr at the place and in the manner prescribed by law.” Signed at the conclusion by Clinton and countersigned by his secretary of state. In fine condition, with some scattered light toning and creasing. The gold foil seal and ribbon are crisp and intact. Starr was convicted for the capital murder of a 76-year-old woman, which was later reversed by the 8th Circuit US Court of Appeals.
