The execution clock has been re-started for former Poplar Bluff resident Cecil Barriner, who’s been convicted a second time of murdering a woman and her granddaughter in Tallapoosa five years ago. A judge has reinstated the death penalty after a jury had found Barriner guilty in his second trial. Barriner got a second trial because the State Supreme Court ruled improper evidence had been allowed in his first trial.
