Andrew Lukehart Florida

Andrew Lukehart
Andrew Lukehart is a white man who has been on death row in the state of Florida since 04/04/97.

Crime

He was convicted of 1st Degree Murder in the commission of a felony, committed on 02/25/96.
The victim in this case, five-month-old Gabrielle Hanshaw, was killed by Lukehart, who lived in Jacksonville with Gabrielle's mother, Misty Rhue, along with Rhue's other daughter, Ashley, and Rhue's father and uncle.   On February 25, 1996, Lukehart and Rhue spent Sunday afternoon running errands in Rhue's car with the two children.   When the four returned to their house on Epson Lane, Rhue took two-year-old Ashley, who had been ill, to her bedroom for a nap, and Lukehart cared for Gabrielle, the baby, in another room.   At one point, Lukehart entered the bedroom and took a clean diaper for the baby.   At approximately 5 p.m., Rhue heard her car starting in the driveway, looked out the window, and saw Lukehart driving away in her white Oldsmobile.   Rhue searched the house for the baby and did not find her.   Thirty minutes later, Lukehart called from a convenience store and told Rhue to call the 911 emergency number because someone in a blue Chevrolet Blazer had kidnapped the baby from the house.   After Rhue called 911, Jacksonville Sheriff's Detectives Tim Reddish and Phil Kearney went to the Epson Lane house.
Shortly thereafter, Lukehart appeared without shirt or shoes in the front yard of the residence of a Florida Highway Patrol trooper in rural Clay County.   At about that same time, the car that Lukehart had been driving was discovered about a block away from the trooper's house.   The car was off the road and had been abandoned with its engine running.   Law enforcement officers from the Clay County Sheriff's Office and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office interviewed Lukehart and searched in Clay County for the baby during the ensuing eighteen hours.   At about noon on Monday, February 26, Lukehart told a lieutenant with the Clay County Sheriff's Office that he had dropped the baby on her head and then shook the baby and that the baby had died at Misty Rhue's residence.   Lukehart said that when the baby died, he panicked, left Rhue's residence, and threw the baby in a pond near Normandy Boulevard in Jacksonville.   Law enforcement officers searched that area and found the baby's body in a pond.
