Tampa St. Petersburg, FL, July 28, 2026 —

Florida is set to execute two death row inmates, James Aren Duckett and Dominick Anthony Occhicone, on the same day. This planned joint execution is notable as it would be the first time in nearly a decade that a U.S. state has carried out two executions within a single 24-hour period.

Dominick Anthony Occhicone, who is 80 years old, is also slated for execution. If carried out as scheduled, Occhicone would become the second-oldest inmate to be executed in modern U.S. history.

Details regarding the specific dates for these executions were not provided in the summary. The summary also did not include information about the crimes for which Duckett and Occhicone were convicted, nor did it specify the legal processes or appeals that have led to these scheduled executions.
