Description

In one indictment, Timothy Wilson Spencer was charged with capital murder, i.e., the willful, deliberate, and premeditated killing of Debbie Dudley Davis during the commission of, or subsequent to, rape. Former Code ? 18.2-31(e) (1987 Cum. Supp.). In a second indictment, Spencer was charged with the rape of Davis. A third indictment charged Spencer with burglary, i.e., breaking and entering Davis dwelling house in the nighttime with intent to commit rape. The three indictments were tried together, and a jury found Spencer guilty on each charge. The jury fixed his punishment at life imprisonment for rape and at 20 years imprisonment for burglary. Following the penalty phase of the capital murder trial, the jury fixed Spencers punishment at death. After a sentencing hearing, the trial court sentenced Spencer in accordance with each jury verdict.
