A 36-year-old man was sentenced to be executed for killing Lori Lynn Blankenship in 2020, authorities said Tuesday.
A jury convicted Humphry Dixon Dogbe in September on one count of first-degree murder, one count of kidnapping, four counts of sexual assault and one count of sexual abuse, according to the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.
In addition to being sentenced Tuesday in the killing, Dogbe was sentenced in October to 48 years in prison for the kidnapping, sexual assault and sexual abuse counts. That sentence will be served concurrently, authorities said.
