Idaho prosecutor says he'll seek death penalty against inmate accused of killing while on the lam

An Idaho prosecutor says he will seek the death penalty against an Idaho inmate charged with killing a man while he was on the lam during a 36-hour escape from prison. Skylar Meade has already been sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty to the March 20 escape. But the first-degree murder charge is in a different county, and Meade has not yet entered a plea in that case. Meade’s defense attorney did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment. A Nez Perce County prosecutor announced Friday that he will seek the death penalty if Meade is convicted in the shooting death of James Mauney.
