Ohio executes inmate who argued he was too fat to die by lethal injection

How the hell can you become or stay fat in a prison for 221/2 years?? We are feeding them way too well..

Seriously. This is the bigger story here.

they could have put an apple in his mouth and put him on a spit.

Cooey argued that it would be inhuman to kill him. But he didn't kill those students humanely.

"Three of Cooey's lawyers"

How many lawyers did he have?

Too messy to shoot him. But I hear he was blubbering the whole time.

I really don't see why he couldn't just be shot if that's what he prefered.

He obviously thought that the authorities were joking when they threatened to use a horse syringe.

Moral: Never double-dare an executioner.

121 Kg is fat but not amazing fat by american standards. He should have bulked up to double that if he had any hope of using obesity as a deterrent to execution. Whatever, I guess Ohio is saving some money on food rations now that he's gone. No sympathy except for his victim.

I'M glad i don't live ina an extreme right wing country that practices the death penalty. this man should have been given life in prison, with the chance of parole if ha gets better. Killing is murder, so Ohio are murderers, thats disguting, yuck!!!
