Murderer dies behind bars in Florida

Lawrence Singleton, who chopped off a teenage hitchhiker's forearms in California and was later sent to death row in Florida for killing a prostitute, has died behind bars of cancer. He was 74.

In 1978, Singleton raped 15-year-old Mary Vincent, cut off her forearms and left her to die.

He won parole in 1987. But a jury in Florida convicted him of murder for stabbing to death 31-year-old Roxanne Hayes at his Tampa home in 1997.
