JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Missouri Supreme Court on
Wednesday set a June execution date for a man convicted of
killing two Missouri jailers during a botched attempt to free a
friend.
Michael Andrew Tisius is scheduled to be executed June 6 at the
state prison in Bonne Terre for the shooting deaths of Randolph
County jailers Jason Acton and Leon Egley.
In 2000, Tisius and Tracie Bulington entered the lobby of the
jail in Huntsville, aiming to break out Bulington’s boyfriend,
Roy Vance, prosecutors said. Tisius fired on the two officers,
killing them. The plot failed because the intruders couldn’t
find the cell keys.
Tisius and Bulington, were arrested on the day of the shootings
in Wathena, Kan., about 130 miles (209.21 kilometer) west of
Huntsville.
Defense attorneys had argued that Tisius intended only to order
the jailers into a holding cell and free Vance and other
inmates.
Bulington, and Vance are serving life sentences.

BONNE TERRE, Mo. — The state of Missouri on Tuesday carried out
the execution of a death row inmate who killed two jailers in
2000, despite last-minute efforts from death penalty opponents
to spare his life.
Michael Tisius, 42, was pronounced dead by lethal injection at
6:10 p.m. at the state prison in Bonne Terre, the Missouri
Department of Corrections confirmed. He is the third person in
Missouri, and the 12th nationally, to be executed in 2023.
