Description
John Michael Bane was indicted for common law premeditated murder and for felony murder committed during the perpetration of a robbery. In a jury trial he was found guilty of murder in the first degree in the perpetration of a robbery. After a sentencing hearing the jury found that defendant should be put to death by electrocution. The aggravating circumstances warranting the death penalty were: (1) the murder was especially heinous, atrocious, or cruel in that it involved torture or depravity of mind; (2) the murder was committed while the defendant was engaged in committing, or was an accomplice in the commission of or was attempting to commit, or was fleeing after committing or attempting to commit robbery. T.C.A. § 39-13-204(i)(5) and (7). The jury unanimously found that there were no mitigating circumstances sufficiently substantial to outweigh the statutory aggravating circumstances.
