Ohio plans first execution since moratorium
Lawyer Blogs
Ohio is planning its first execution since a U.S. Supreme Court decision ended a national pause on killing inmates.
The Ohio Supreme Court on Friday set an execution date of Oct. 14 for Richard Cooey, who was convicted of raping and murdering two University of Akron students in 1986.
Executions had been put on hold nationally for several months until the U.S. Supreme Court decided in April to allow Kentucky's lethal injection process, which is similar to the one used in Ohio. Opponents argued the procedure is unconstitutionally cruel.
