Arizona executes inmate after federal judge lifts stay
• APArizona has executed Jeffrey Landrigan for a 1989 murder in the state's first execution since 2007.
Landrigan died by injection at a state prison in Florence at 10:29 p.m. Tuesday after a stay issued by a federal judge was lifted by the U.S. Supreme Court. That stay was based on questions about the effectiveness of the state's supply of an execution drug in short supply.
