Cases like this are kind of tough for me - the guy is obviously making some ridiculous arguments against his eligibility for the death penalty, and he's kind of making a mockery of the system. At the same time, I'm against capital punishment.

Either way, I guess it doesn't matter.

Buh-bye: Ohio executes inmate who argued was too fat to die (AP).

Now the ADPi sisters that he murdered can rest in peace.

To respond to his lawyer's statement that the government has no conscience. No, it doesn't. And it shouldn't.

I hope he was terrified every second before he died. I hope as he was strapped down he had the same kind of awful fear his victims had. Yep. I'm just sorry he couldn't suffer more.

Well, I guess he wasn't too fat.

:eek: I honestly didn't know! In fact, I had to google their names to be sure they were ADPis. But at the end of the day, it doesn't matter. He had 22 more years to live than his victims did. I'll venture to say that both Dawn McCreery and Wendy Offredo would have lived more constructive lives than he did.

Yes, they were ADPi sisters at U of Akron, who had just left work and were heading to a party. Two of their ADPi sisters were witnesses to the execution.
