Labrant Dennis is a black man who has
been on death row in the state of Florida since 02/26/99.
Crime
He was convicted of 2 counts of Premeditated 1st Degree Murder, committed on 04/13/96. As to the injuries suffered by the victims, the State's medical examiner testified that both victims died from massive head trauma. According to Dr. Gulino, Lumpkins suffered lacerations and a compound fracture to the back of her skull. Dr. Gulino opined that the skull fractures suffered by Lumpkins were the type typically seen in high-speed car accidents. Lumpkins also had a fracture to the base of her skull. Dr. Gulino indicated that many of the injuries to the back of Lumpkins' head were consistent with being inflicted with the blunt portion of the shotgun. Moreover, several lacerations corresponded with the coils or spring of the ammunition tube of the shotgun. Lumpkins also had a fracture to her left hand and numerous other injuries to her hand which Dr. Gulino testified were consistent with an attempt to protect herself from injury.Similarly brutal injuries were described by Dr. Gulino with regards to Barnes. Barnes suffered numerous lacerations over his face and head, many of which had a crescent character consistent with the broken trigger guard recovered at the scene. Indeed, the State introduced several composite pictures comparing the victims' wounds with the shotgun that made it readily apparent that the victims were struck with such force that their skin retained what amounted to the shotgun's “fingerprints.” Barnes suffered numerous facial fractures. Like Lumpkins, Barnes had several defensive wounds to his forearms and hands.
