Kerry L. Dalton California

Kerry L. Dalton
Kerry L. Dalton is on death row in the state of California.
In March of 2019, the state halted executions, leaving death row in the air. As someone who has seen every crime that was committed to earn this sentence, it is truly reserved for the worst of the worst, and he or she will likely serve life in prison if the death penalty is no longer an option.

Crime

Dalton, a meth addict, and two accomplices beat and tortured to death a woman,  Irene ("Melanie") Louise May she believed had stolen her jewelry, injecting her with battery acid and electrocuting her before dismembering and disposing of the body. The victim was never found.

 On June 26, 1988, Dalton, her boyfriend Mark “TK” Tompkins, and Sheryl Ann “John Boy” Baker murdered 23-year-old Irene Melanie May in Joanne Fedor’s trailer located in the Live Oak Springs Trailer Park in Boulevard, California. Her body was never found.
      Dalton and her coperpetrators were jointly charged, but Dalton’s trial was severed. Tompkins pled guilty to first degree murder. Baker pled guilty to second degree murder in exchange for testifying at the 1995 trial against Dalton. The prosecutor also agreed to other terms, including notifying the Department of Corrections or Board of Prison Terms of Baker’s cooperation and her level of culpability in Dalton’s case, requesting she serve her prison time out of state, and transporting her to and from court separately from Dalton. Baker had not yet been sentenced at the time of her testimony.
