Alabama was set to put to death an inmate Thursday evening for the 2004 slayings of three police officers shot by his accomplice at a suspected drug house.

Nathaniel Woods, 43, was scheduled to receive a lethal injection at the state prison in Atmore, Alabama, after the nation’s highest court refused to block the execution plan.
