Steve Sisolak and the top Democrat in the Legislature declared efforts to repeal the state's death penalty law dead, Villani on Monday, May 10, 2021, pushed back to June 4 a hearing on the district attorney's request to set a late July date for the lethal injection of Zane Michael Floyd. Floyd, 45, would be the first convicted killer put to death in Nevada since 2006. (Erik Verduzco/Las Vegas Review-Journal via AP, File)Erik Verduzco/APShow MoreShow Less
