Florida plans to execute Norman Mearle Grim Jr., 65, by lethal injection at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Florida State Prison near Starke. Grim was convicted of the 1998 rape and murder of his neighbor, Cynthia Campbell, whose body was found near the Pensacola Bay Bridge; DNA evidence linked him to the killing. He waived further appeals this month. The execution would be Florida’s 15th in 2025, extending a state record; Florida leads the nation in executions this year. Two additional Florida executions are scheduled in November under warrants signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis.
