The executions of three Ohio death row inmates have been delayed as the state continues to develop a new execution-drug protocol, the governor's office said
The executions of three Ohio death row inmates have been delayed as the state continues to develop a new execution-drug protocol, the governor's office said Thursday.
The development of the new protocol was ordered by Gov. Mike DeWine in January, after a US magistrate ruled that the state's current three-drug protocol would cause severe pain and needless suffering, according to a news release. Death Penalty Fast FactsDeWine said Thursday's reprieves are being issued because it's unlikely the new protocol could be litigated by the scheduled execution dates. The action brings the number of delayed executions this year to four.
Thursday's statement also acknowledged the"emotional trauma" for the victim's families, staff, law enforcement and prosecutors of planning for an execution that is rescheduled.The latest delayed executions were to have taken place in November 2019 and January and March 2020.
