An inmate was executed Wednesday after being convicted of murdering two 13-year-old girls in a ghost town where they were raped, strangled and stabbed before being dumped in a partly flooded mine shaft.

The execution of Stokley was Arizona?s 34th since 1992. Daniel Cook was put to death on Aug. 8 in Arizona?s most recent execution.
