Alabama executes Michael Taylor by injection for 1991 double homicide

The state of Alabama carried out its third execution of 2026 on Nov. 5, putting Michael Shannon Taylor to death by lethal injection almost 35 years to the day that he beat and murdered an elderly couple in Gadsden. Taylor was 54 at the time of his death and was officially pronounced dead at 6:10 p.m. at the William C. Holman Correctional Facility in Atmore. “35 years ago yesterday, Ivan and Lucille Moore kindly opened their home to Michael Taylor," said Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey. "Mr. Taylor repaid [Ivan and Lucille] Moore by beating them to death with a metal bar, all to rob them for money to buy clothing and jewelry. His actions were reprehensible and despite his attempts to evade the consequences, he is facing the Good Lord for final judgement tonight." Execution timeline In the execution chamber, there is a digital clock on the wall, but the seconds are not visible. The Alabama Department of Corrections does not allow witnesses to bring anything — including stopwatches, analog watches and recording devices — into the viewing chamber aside from department-issued pens, pencils and notebook paper.

Jack’s Western and Outdoor Wear Founder Larry Allred named Bronze Alabama Retailer of the Year

GOOD HOPE, Ala. — For Larry Allred, the story of Jack’s Western and Outdoor Wear has always been about more than boots and western wear. It is a story of family, hard work and a community that helped shape his life. Fifty years after opening a small store connected to Jack’s Truck Stop and Café, Allred has grown the Good Hope business into a nearly 30,000-square-foot destination. In recognition of his success and the legacy he has built over five decades, Allred has been named the Bronze Alabama Retailer of the Year by the Alabama Retail Association. Allred’s connection to the business runs deep. As a boy, he spent long days working on his grandfather’s farm. In 2013, he purchased that same land, once owned by his great grandfather, and built the store that stands there today. As Allred puts it, “We are still working the land.” Family remains at the heart of the business. His daughters, Sara Allred Barnett and Kristin Allred Mazur, and son-in-law Les Barnett help keep Jack’s moving forward, while all four grandchildren pitch in, too. From boots and inventory to marketing and modeling outfits, everyone finds a way to contribute. Allred’s commitment to community is
