Raulerson, 33, was pronounced dead at 7:11 a.m., becoming the 11th Florida inmate and the 37th na tionwide to die since the U.S. Su preme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1976. “I made a promise at my son’s graveside that 1 would watch his killer die,” said Jack Stewart, whose 23-year-old son, Michael, was killed during a Jacksonville restaurant rob- bery in April 1975. About 50 police officers from Jacksonville, some wearing T-shirts saying "Raulerson Make My Daf and "Crank Up Old Sparky, stood in a pasture across from Florida State Prison.

In a final statement he read from a white piece of paper, Raulerson blamed taiglish for Stewart’s death. “I am sorry you are made a mur derer through the state, Mr. Dug ger,” Raulerson said, referring to >rison Superintendent Richard Dugger. “James English killed Mi chael Stewart and used Stewart's gun to murder my cousin.” Ballistics tests showed that bullets from Raulerson’s pistol killed Stew art. Man arrested in connection with Florida fires Associated Press Page 8/1 he battalion IHv' |§g§|g Condemned Dal police killer rec executed out TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — A man was arrested Wednesday and charged with setting a wildfire that killed a firefighter, injured another and continued to burn out of control after destroying 1,000 acres, officials said. Eddie Richardson, 34, was beinjj held on an arson charge and could face murder counts later because of the death, said Cpl. Kevin Nelson of the Collier County Sheriffs Depart ment. Several employees from Florida Power 8c Light Co., along with Dep uty William Bucholtz, captured Richardson after he was seen setting the fire about eight miles east oi Naples, Nelson said. Meanwhile, two other fires in the series of blazes that have struck Plot ida this month continued to burn. A fire in the Everglades in north west Broward County on the state’s east coast, grew to 16,000 acres, Larry Amison, a spokesman for the Division of Forestry, while another fire, of unknown size and origin, started near North Port Charlotte, between Tampa and Naples on the west,coast. The dead state firefighter, Marco A. Miranda, 26, of Naples appar ently was caught by surprise by the fast-moving blaze Wednesday, said Paul Willis, a Forestry Department spokesman. The injured ranger, Hank Jensen, was treated and released for smoke inhalation, then returned to fight the fire, Forestry Division spokeswo man Jodi Chase said. Richardson had been hospitalized after suffering minor injuries dur ing the chase and was in satisfactory condition, Nelson said. The suspect already was facing murder charges in a separate, non arson case, Nelson said. The charges stemmed from a fistfight last fall in which the victim was killed, he said. The new fire near Naples was burning where 10,000 acres of land was burned over the weekend in a suspected case of arson. Amison said the latest Naples fire was separate from the 10,000-acre inferno, nota resurgence. The 10,000-acre blaze struck in an area called Golden Gate near Alliga tor Alley, a road which cuts from Fort Lauderdale to Naples through the Everglades. Fires have claimed more than 50,000 acres in the state this month because of a combination of season ally dry weather, vegetation-drying freezes, illegal trash fires and arson, authorities said. Arson, according to Amison, was the primary cause of most of the fires. DALE ings on t tracted ni plicants I; eager the las. Dallas percent o 1984 wen “Then people oi for jobs,’ J.D.
