JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - Mississippi death row inmate Leslie “Bo” Galloway III, convicted of raping and killing a Harrison Central High senior in 2008, is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to hear his appeal.

Prosecutors say Galloway, now 30, killed the teenager and dumped her body in a rural wooded area off Mississippi Highway 15. Hunters found her body.

In 2013, the Mississippi Supreme Court upheld Galloway’s 2010 conviction and death sentence in the slaying of Shakeylia Anderson of Gulfport.



Prosecutors say Galloway, now 30, killed the 17-year-old Anderson and dumped her body in a rural wooded area off Mississippi Highway 15.

Prosecutors say Anderson was last seen getting into Galloway’s car on Dec. 5, 2008. Hunters found her body the next day.
