His crime? Article notes "He was convicted in 1994 of the rape and murder of 22-year-old Joy Stewart, who was seven months pregnant. Her throat was cut and she had been sodomized."
This happened 5 years before he was convicted, so a total of 24 years he has not had to pay for his sins.
All who feel sorry for this poor guy's death of agony please feel free to contribute response.
Reading of Mr. McGuire’s death has upset me so much that I cannot stop crying. I am typing this through tears. It’s so bad I’ve had to call in sick from today’s drum circle.
bleh he should have been injected with something far more painful like a lethal dose of amphetamine (feeling your heart burst is not a comfy way to die)

Ohio inmate Dennis McGuire appeared to gasp and convulse for roughly 10 minutes before he finally died Thursday during his execution by lethal injection using a new combination of drugs, reporters who witnessed it said.

What was the name of that sadistic bastard prison guard in “The Green MIle” who deliberately failed to water down that inmate prior to execution? The convict sparked, smoked, burned awhile and finally after awhile died.
Seems like his legacy lives on.
Ohio and other states are having to try new methods because the anti-capital punishment leftists persuaded Hospira to stop making sodium thiopental, one of the common lethal injection drugs.
This just in.
No persons who are not convicted of terrible murders will be forced to endure this new procedure.
Relatives of these non-convicted persons can rest easy.
For that guy they should have fired up Ole Sparky.
Only ten minutes? Oh well, its a start.
I believe the direct high speed injection of several ounces of lead metal to the head or heart would do the job. Convulsions would be minimal.
Did it work?
If so, what’s the controversy?
I prefer the “Scott Evil” approach.
Just shoot him.....BANG.....DEAD.....DONE.
Maybe lethal injections to criminals should be done by a vet so the death penalty would be reported as, "It was the right thing to do."
If he has been in prison for over 20 years then how old are these "children??"
The perp was to “suffocate to death in agony and terror.”

And the problem — aside from the fact that this animal has been allowed to live all these years — is....?
Criminal Rights Nazis never seem to care of the pain and suffering of the victims of crime
Death Penalty opponents are the most depraved folks around. No compassion for the victims, total compassion for the criminal.
And, the Death Penalty Opponents/Criminal Rights Nazis never attack the justice system when there is a wrongful conviction...only the Death Penalty
Oh, Thank God. I kept hearing the execution was delayed this morning on my way to work — I was sure they’d find some idiot to STAY the execution.
Just found out he got exactly what he should have gotten soon after committing this crime - the only sin here (besides the murder itself) is how long it took to finally get justice for the family of Joy Stewart and her unborn baby.
