Pardons board denies clemency for convicted killer Wallace Fugate

ATLANTA - Wallace Fugate, sentenced to death for killing his wife eleven years ago, was denied clemency by a state pardons board Monday. <br> <br> It was the second time the state Pardons and Paroles board denied clemency for the 52-year-old Fugate. The first denial was overturned in June, just hours before Fugate was to be put to death by injection. <br> <br> The board was short one member, and a Fulton County judge gave fugate a stay of execution until the all five members of the pardons board could rule. <br> <br> Since then, Governor Barnes appointed Michael Light as the board&#39;s fifth member. All five voted in Monday&#39;s ruling. <br> <br> Fugate is to be killed Wednesday evening unless a judge orders a delay.
