Ohio will delay the executions of seven death row inmates while searching for an adequate supply of drugs that complies with its new execution protocol, the state's Department of Rehabilitation and Correction said Friday.

That means the state will not carry out any executions in 2015, the agency said in a press release.

Hypoxia via breathing pure nitrogen is a sure and humane way to go.

It's also cheap, and gives the victim no sense of being suffocated. One instant you're there; the next instant you're in Valhalla.

A bullet to the head is cheap and effective if done right. Or any Veterinarian can supply the drugs needed.

Nikki age 8

Ashley Nichole 'Nikki' Read, age 8, RAPED and KILLED by david keen. 25 yrs ago. He has been on TN Death Row for 20 yrs. ALL State and Federal Appeals are FINISHED. DNA proved he raped her, he confessed he both raped and strangled her to death with her own shoe laces. Yet TN Gov Bill Halsam refuses to set an execution date or sign the execution warrant.

Nikki was raped, strangled with her own Shoelaces, wrapped tightly in her blanket and thrown in the river barely still alive, where she finally drown to death. 24 Yrs of waiting for Justice, is obscene.

Tell TN Governor to do his Constitutional Duty, that 2 juries decided and all appeals courts UPHELD was the right course of action. The Death Penalty.

Drama queens rule the death penalty issue today. It would garner him far less fame if they “threw away the key.”

Don't have to look too far for an answer..

[GailA]

A Versed OD will do the same thing. Any anesthesiologist can put under a killer with ease.

I’m not so nice a rope would do just fine.

BTW I am the mother of a Murdered Child, by best friend is the Mom of the little girl whose rapist killer is still alive after the crime 25 yrs later. She deals with the Death Penalty, I dealt with 6 parole hearings. And since my son’s killer was let out of prison as he maxed out his ‘good’ behavior time. I CCW. And am a decent shooter. Weapon he used a 2 ft section of fence post. Nikki was strangled with her OWN shoelaces.

Every one who supports the DP please be a sweetheart and pass the post on and make that call to our RINO governor in TN.

Thanks.

I wish you and your bereaved friend well and peace. If this is a divine leading, let it be satisfied.

I could only wish liberals would care half as much about unborn babies as they do about people who have committed heinous murders.

Might I suggest the chemical element, Pb.

Don’t get me started on the Gooberner of Ohio.

I'll trade you our TN governor for your OH governor.

Seems that Haslem (Has-Been) is starting to embrace Obamacare these days. Probably a backroom deal to keep the feds off of his back for alleged shenanigans at his Pilot gas station/travel centers.

How about you let them test the new drugs on you, Kasich?

Nitrogen Asphyxiation

Hemp has become very popular again! What the hell is the problem?

[arthurus]

Lead is a good cheap effective drug. So is sisal or hemp.

[MosesKnows]

breathing pure nitrogen

Would not breathing some of the dreaded CO2 cause one to silently and painlessly die?

[kjam22]

That was my first thought too.... I’m glad I looked through the posts before posting....

As a veterinarian once told me, when asked why you injected rather than shoot horses,...”It looks nicer.”

Need to bring back the TV program DANCING AMONG THE STARS. As the old timers used to say...."They hung him so high he had to look down at the moon!"

[Gay State Conservative]

...."They hung him so high he had to look down at the moon!"

Even the Three Stooges had an opinion on the subject...Curly:"My Daddy *died* dancing...at the end of a rope!

I remember reading of an execution of a soldier at Fort Laramie back in the 1850s.

A tall pole was set up with a long crossbar much like a tetter totter.
Heavy weights were tied to one end of the crossbar, and supported, the condemned soldier had a noose around his neck on the other end.
When the support holding up the weighted end was removed the weighted end dropped, flipping the condemned man like a bullwhip and breaking his neck.
