Timothy Alan Dunlap, 35, from Sellersburg, Indiana, is a death row inmate with convictions spanning multiple states. In 1991, Dunlap pleaded guilty to the murder of Tonya Crane, a Security State Bank teller in Soda Springs, Idaho. Crane was killed during an attempted bank robbery on October 16, 1991. The brutal nature of the crime, involving a shotgun, led to Dunlap receiving a death sentence in Idaho.

In addition to his conviction in Idaho, Dunlap was also on death row in Ohio for a separate crime. Earlier in 1991, he was convicted of murdering his girlfriend in Ohio. The duality of his death sentences highlights a particularly grim aspect of his criminal history and raises significant issues about the coordination of justice across state lines.

Dunlap's case involves complex legal and procedural challenges, including ongoing appeals and legal arguments about the fairness of his trials and the appropriateness of the death penalty. His situation is a notable example of the complications that can arise when a convicted criminal faces capital punishment in multiple jurisdictions.
