Mr. Orme was convicted of the first-degree murder of Lisa Redd, who was beaten and strangled in 1992. He was condemned to death but this Court later reversed the sentence. At his second re-sentencing hearing, the new jury voted 11-1 to recommend the death penalty. The trial court again condemned Mr. Orme. This Court upheld the second death sentence on direct appeal and Mr. Orme filed a postconviction challenge in trial court. It was denied and this appeal followed.
