Ohio puts Man down like the Animal he was...

Ohio executes man using animal euthanasia drug - Yahoo! News

Baston, who was 20 at the time of the murder, admitted to participating in the robbery but denied shooting Chong Mah. Baston said he had no intention to kill anyone, and that an accomplice had committed the murder.

The defense argued in an appeal for clemency that the family of the victim did not want Baston to be sentenced to death and still opposed his execution.

The defense also argued that Baston, who had been abandoned by his mother and abused by his father, has been a model inmate and participated in several community service projects.

Ohio Governor John Kasich denied the petition for clemency.

Smith said Baston had no requests for his last meal, so he ate on Wednesday night what everyone else at the prison was eating: beef macaroni casserole, spinach, peas, fresh fruit, wheat bread and a beverage.

The Baston execution took place a day after the governor of Illinois banned the death penalty in the state, finding the system was too flawed to be fixed.

The U.S. executed 46 people last year, down from 52 in 2009.


^How many different ways does Reuters want to try to Sympathize with and Excuse for the Convicted?...

Report the News already.

:)

peace...

Well, let's see, del...

They Reported PLENTY of Assertions by the Convicted that don't Equate to "Facts"...

They did NOT Report nearly a Damned thing about the Evidence and Facts that Found him on Death Row...

You do the Math.

Bias?... Yep.

I think we should go back to public hangings. That would make a great tv reality show.

I know your post was tongue in cheek, doggy, but I mean this seriously: the manner of execution should mirror the method used in the crime.

How could it be 'unusual' if it was the usual manner chosen by the perp?

We are not supposed to be a barbaric nation. It sickens me when American start to howl and bay for blood. We are supposed to be smart, not given to hyperbolic ranting.

nothing in the article, and nothing that you quoted shows any sympathy for the killer. they reported what the prosecution said and what the defense said.

we call those facts, cletus, do try to keep up.

Tell that to the Native Americans, sister.

Oh good grief, you really are dumb, aren't you? You have my sympathy. There is a cure for stupidity... we call it 'critical thinking'. I hope you choose to cure yourself.

They Quoted the Convicted Claiming his Lack of Guilt without an ounce of Substance...

They Quoted the Convicted Claiming a Bad Childhood without an ounce of Substance...

They did NOT Quote the Court Record on the Facts Presented by the Prosecution that Found this Man Executed...

Read it again.

Ohio puts Man down like the Animal he was...

What's really sad is that they weren't able to harvest his organs so that others might live. Maybe we should bring back the guillotine so the entire body isn't poisoned. I'd like to hear criminal on death row say, "I'm sorry I did what I did and I want to donate my organs to help others." Has any said that? Maybe. I don't know.
