TALLAHASSEE — A federal appellate court on Monday tem- porarily stopped the execution of a drug trafficker convicted of killing a Florida state trooper with a pipe bomb. What began as a routine traf- fic stop on Interstate 10 in rural north Florida quickly escalated into the killing of the trooper and launched a multistate in- vestigation that unraveled a major crack cocaine ring 21 years ago. That chain of events was set to end with the execution Tues- day of South Florida drug traf- ficker Paul Augustus Howell, 47, for murdering Florida High- way Patrol Trooper Jimmy Ful- ford on Feb. 1, 1992. The Atlanta-based 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, though, stayed the execution that was scheduled for 6 p.m. at See STAY /Page A5 Con artists target Social Security A.B. SIDIBE Staff writer
