Bay County death row inmate Roderick Micheal Orme loses another round in his battle to avoid execution.
The Florida Supreme Court Thursday affirmed the trial courts decision to impose the death penalty on Orme for the 1992 rape, robbery and murder of Lisa Redd.
Orme was having what he called a "bad high" after free basing cocaine. He called Redd to his motel room at Lees Motel on Martin Luther King, Jr. boulevard to help him. Redd was a friend and a nurse.
She took the drugs from Orme when she arrived. Police say Orme then raped her, stole her jewelry, beat her severely, and strangled her.
The high court found the death penalty was proportionate to the crimes Orme committed.
