Omar Blanco is a white man who has been on death row in the state of Florida since 05/24/82.

Crime

He was convicted of Premeditated 1st Degree Murder, committed on 01/14/82.  The defendant, Omar Blanco, murdered the victim, John Ryan, by shooting him death in the Ryan’s home.

The victim’s 14-year-old niece, Thalia Vezos, testified that at approximately 11 p.m. on January 14, 1982, she was in bed in her Ft. Lauderdale home when she saw a man standing in hallway holding a gun and carrying a brown wallet-type object under his arm.

He indicated that Vezos was to keep quiet.  He then cut the wires to her telephone and left the room.  Ryan appeared in the hall and tried to take the gun from the intruder.  Ryan was shot in the scuffle and landed on top of Vezos.  The intruder shot six more times, then fled.

A short while later police responding to a BOLO stopped Blanco, who was riding a bicycle, and arrested him.  A man’s purse containing Blanco’s ID papers and a watch belonging to Vezos was found near the door to Vezos’ bedroom.  On the day following the murder, Vezos identified Blanco in a lineup as the perpetrator.
