South Bend - The man on death row for killing an Indiana State Trooper during a routine traffic stop is seeking clemency from Governor Mitch Daniels.
59-year-old Norman Timberlake says in a clemency petition submitted to the state Parole Board that he is seeking clemency because he "did not do crime, co-defendant did it and blamed it on me."
Timberlake was convicted of killing Master Trooper Michael E. Greene of Thorntown in February 1993 during a routine traffic stop along Interstate 65 on the northwestside of Indianapolis.
He is scheduled to die by lethal injection January 19.
