YOU CANNOT FIND A HUMANE WAY TO END A LIFE! 

JUST SAY "DEATH TO THE DEATH PENALTY!"

Ohio considering bone, muscle for lethal injection
By STEPHEN MAJORS (AP) – 2 days ago

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio is considering injecting lethal drugs into inmates' bone marrow or muscles as an alternative to — or a backup for — the traditional intravenous execution procedure, a prisons department spokeswoman said Tuesday.

"Everything is on the table" as the state researches ways to adjust its death chamber procedure in the wake of a failed execution last month, when officials couldn't locate suitable veins on inmate Romell Broom, said Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction spokeswoman Julie Walburn.

Broom's execution is on hold at least until a federal court hearing takes place on Nov. 30. Gov. Ted Strickland issued reprieves for two other death-row inmates on Monday, saying that more time is needed to study the execution procedure.

The changes could include a different procedure to access veins, the use of a device to inject lethal chemicals directly into an inmate's bone marrow, or injection into muscles.

"We don't believe that this exam or the reprieve are a reflection of the skills and ability of our team," Walburn said. "This was a rare and exceptional circumstance, but we want to make sure we have a contingency plan if this were to reoccur."

Richard Dieter, director of the nonprofit Death Penalty Information Center, said he isn't aware of any other states that have considered, or currently use, injections into bone marrow or muscle.

Ohio's current procedure gives officials as much time as they need to locate suitable veins, but other states have procedures for dealing with inmates in such circumstances.

In Kentucky, the execution team can only try for one hour. Other states, including Florida, allow for a procedure in which the team cuts the skin to find a vein.

Ohio officials also are exploring whether to keep the state's three-drug regimen — a sedative, a paralyzing agent and a chemical to stop the heart — or to rely on a single drug, Walburn said. It could be used as a backup if officials encounter difficulty locating veins, or as a new procedure to replace the old one.

 I responded thusly:

Mary Neal, Georgia

Before another person is executed in any facility operated under the U.S. Bureau of Prisons, ask them WHAT HAPPENED TO LARRY NEAL. The USDOJ notified me by letter dated May 28 that it forwarded my Freedom of Information Act request to the Bureau of Prisons and response was due by the end of June. No responsive records came regarding the secret Guantanamo-style arrest and wrongful death of lifelong mentally ill heart patient Larry Neal to date - not from the Bureau of Prisons or the U.S. Attorneys Office. - http://wrongfuldeathoflarryneal.com  

I called the Bureau of Prisons last week, left a message, and got no return call that I know about.

The truth is there is NO EXCUSE for my brother's murder in Memphis Shelby County Jail in summer 2003. He was incarcerated and held in secret for 18 days while the jail denied having him until he died without his heart drugs. If more was done to kill Larry, his family is not allowed to know despite asking all authorities for SIX YEARS for basic information, arrest records, an explanation as to why the jail lied continuously for weeks and denied Larry was incarcerated.

Why did the DOJ accept perjury in federal hearings to release the jail from overview in 2005 AFTER the DOJ already knew about Larry's secret arrest and death? What on earth would make the DOJ accept the jail's testimony and written reports that omitted Larry's death, when it was clearly mandated in the Agreement for the lawsuit USA v. Shelby County Jail that all inmates' deaths would be reported to the USDOJ?

What has happened to the justice system that the DOJ would knowingly accept PERJURY and help hide a handicapped citizen's death under secret arrest? Is the entire U.S. penal system Guantanamo now? Please do NOT come up with fake records. The USDOJ has already written repeatedly that Shelby County Jail sent no reports, so that is that.

Larry's death is denied any investigation, unlike Michael Vick's dogs' abuse. Thousands of manhours were used to investigate abuse to pit bulls. Then Vick was prosecuted, bankrupted, imprisoned, and fired. But Memphis Shelby County Jail where my brother died has not been asked ONE QUESTION by authorities: WHAT HAPPENED TO LARRY NEAL?

Because I ask it, I get censored and stalked online and in person, but denied 911 emergency police services when cornered by FOUR VEHICLES AND A USDOT TRUCK - See "Cochran Firm Fraud" videos on YouTube. Please halt all executions in the name of "justice" until you develop a sense of justice. Treat others as you wish to be treated. That is the rule. Don't arrest and kill harmless mental patients because you are tired of them singing loud outside and asking folks for quarters! Don't hide the truth.

INVESTIGATE YOURSELVES. Life in prison without parole is enough penalty for prisoners, because their lives will surely be hell in your hands. Human rights are ignored too often in our jails and prisons. Besides that, plenty of condemned people may be innocent, and even one is too many.

DEATH TO THE DEATH PENALTY.

Please, elected officials, do something about atrocities like this PETITION: 

Here is how 200,000 PEOPLE live, and 60% are mental patients.  This resulted since we were "humane" enough to "save" them from mental hospitals in the 1970's:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEs3BQ0znAs
