OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals has set March 23 as the execution date for Kelly Lamont Rogers in the
stabbing death of a Stillwater woman.

The court, acting Thursday on a request this week by Attorney General Drew Edmondson, noted that Rogers had exhausted all his state and federal appeals.

Rogers was convicted in the 1990 murder of Karen Marie Lauffenburger in her Stillwater apartment. She was stabbed nine times in the chest, neck and abdomen.

Police said the woman, a student at Oklahoma State University, was stabbed after being robbed during a pizza delivery.
