Ronald Gray

Ronald Adrin Gray (born August 14, 1965) is an American serial killer and rapist whose convictions include four counts of murder, one count of attempted murder and eight counts of rape. His crimes were committed when he was in the United States Army, stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

Gray was tried and convicted by a military court and sentenced to death. On November 26, 2008, a federal judge issued a stay of execution stopping the planned December 10 execution. On January 26, 2012, the Army Court of Criminal Appeals denied relief in Gray's case and on November 13, 2017, the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces similarly denied an appeal for extraordinary relief.

George W. Bush authorized Gray's execution in 2008, following a Department of Justice review. Gray's execution would have been the first by the U.S. military since 1961. However, days before his pending execution, a federal judge authorised a stay pending further appeals.
