it was. a learning new details about the killing of an. employee who was murdered on the

job. police say they have. sheriff's office says he goes by the nickname. twenty one year old james rhodes is charged with the murder of twenty year old. forty. steps towards your door. she says the pain of shelby's loss is real i'm going to

make sure if it takes the last breath that he needs to get that and. we begin today shoulder to look at the chaos surrounding executions in the united states now that many of the drugs use relief the injections are no longer available the execution of drugs scarcity stems from the receipt of manufacturers in europe and united states to look to the people to do. i think the job of defending. the most unpopular amongst our society is absolutely indispensable part of our society. all of my clients have already been tried convicted and sentenced to death in ohio state court system . basically every execution has been scheduled schooling back to

june third of two thousand and nine. committing suicide three days before the execution very midst on twenty fifth was executed wrong phillips was next on nov fourteenth two thousand and thirteen. but it's more. of the attorneys for an ohio inmate scheduled to die through an experimental execution method say their client will suffer a terrifying and agonizing death according to his lawyers the untested injection method it will not properly statement which will cause him to feel the pain of suffocation before he dies and his mcquire is on death row for the one nine hundred eighty nine rape and murder of pregnant woman joy stewart. the state is planning to inject him with a two drug mix that's never been used in the next accused in the fore. we presented

our case to the judge to stop the execution. we argue that dennis is going to essentially seal be consciously aware of feeling like he is going to suffocate like he is suffocating because he is suffocating because of the way the two of us work. so now we sit and wait expecting a decision any time today. or use the relief. it is. going to. find you know as. tonight. right here. this is alan barnard from the federal budget centers office. oh i've had better days. to say what are you going to buy today you know not that i'm aware

of i did. everything. for the second year in a row a record number of people convicted of crimes have been exonerated in the united states according to a new report by the national registry of exonerations one hundred forty nine people falsely convicted of crimes were free to twenty fifteen nearly forty percent of those cases we charged. just. after spending fifteen years against president jefferson parish made history d.n.a. evidence exonerated david tippett oh who is on death row at aig. as for the rape

and murder of his fourteen year old cousin his attorneys are speaking right now in the seventh ward. you dream of it every day it's not it's not the same as actually going through it it's. just a serial walk this. is not something you can prepare yourself because you've been living in those conditions for so long. i think oh no. i. damon tippett oh that man right there at the center of your screen free today he spent twenty three hours a day in solitary confinement during his fifteen years at angola now thirty eight years old he went to jail when he was rather twenty three. if i had just gone off and done something else. like that running turn my head every day for fifteen years every day that's what i would think about.

now and. it's not. a problem i thought for ever but all of a. profit mr. starr had come up mess and. went to the store and i went and that. they came. to take him in. and question him. and after that. he never came home. who every. day. for. them and him. the oldest

daughter under the bridge last night triangle doherty believes. there. was. a parent anguished cry his fourteen year old daughter even dead brutally murdered if that reality isn't horrible enough the family must now cope with the fact that a relative. twenty two year old. to the cry. when. they walked into the corridor and made it sound like i just walked into this interrogation room. i used to be one of those people who believed someone would never confessed they

didn't do. and society as a whole believes that. but yet here i am. no longer after. the stairs to the street three days two thousand and thirteen yes it's time for each of you is going to listen to this he's going to the stage. on this last bridge to see if any. of this. will.

ah you can. see we here are even funny. at the very. least and then just smile on and smile and like it ain't nothing we all slop become all things do you think we see something. that takes a lot out of me when i see him you saw what happened today. and before the court hearings was a month apart or two months apart we was in court every week for months. we've been

to court so many times in the past few months i haven't even had time to really green over my daughter's death. and. you know that to say i'm only go through a terrible ordeal and most of the time the victims' families they are very much in favor the death penalty. there are some people that because of what they did have given up the right to live among us and that is our florals the. you know i've been doing this a long time i think my first death penalty case was nine hundred eighty eight and none of those people ever been executed. that's the unfortunate thing in our system that it takes too long. i don't think there's enough focus on victim's family you know in terms of closure. at some point death family deserves closure don't. as the state of ohio prepare to use the new drug method of lethal injection for the . time for dennis mcguire six accused and his attorneys argued this week that he

would suffer from a condition known as air hunger acquires attorney unsuccessfully challenge the two drug protocol in federal court this week. what he feels he's going to start to obstruct right away looking for his head coming up the two sides of it you know there may be vomit in she's not going to breathe as we try to movies when we try to clear the the obstruction let me see yours is one of the things that's been mentioned i don't remember if there's a strap across that. you should be able to see the muscles tense in that you know you release in terms of releasing you know it's more than one doctor who thinks it's quite possible that he still could be alive at that five it for. a car.

what politicians do something illegal. they put themselves on the line and they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or something i want to be rich to. have to do i would be precipices like that before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in the halls. or sydney.

it's a job that is very thankless and it's not very popular. and i know how many hours he's. not be very popular i. when there's an execution it's toxic i worry about him i support the important job that he's doing and i know he puts his whole heart and soul into it and. i don't know that i want him in it for the rest of our lives. because of the stress of the toll that it takes on him and. so i honestly i if tomorrow it could be abolished in ohio that would be the best

thing possible because then he would have to choose it would just be taken away. not just in ohio but all over the country but the experimenting on our clients the immediate focus is. you don't torture mike for it if you're going to kill him. it's hard to make sure that when damon came out he spent the first five or six weeks living with my wife and me in minneapolis and went to work doing mail delivery in our office. we helped him deal with getting back on the grid. one from

death row. group of people. i became absolutely convinced dean's innocence four hours of work on the case. if you read the autopsy report you knew right away that what damon confessed to was completely. earth because he seemed to have an alibi he was helping crystal harris search for her when she turned up friday night when he was with. the mother and she wasn't there it was because he was. looking for for thirty six hours. i just laid down to go to sleep and. knocked on my door said they wanted to ask me questions about krystal. at first i

thought it was just a routine. relationship and sell her house during the day when jefferson parish deputies made the discovery it turned out the man they would accuse of already being questioned by detectives. and. news. indeed clichy use of the technique it's designed to elicit a confession that he will in any way to aid. that. they're there. to manipulate you. i was told i failed my witnesses one for me he explained in detail how someone is executed.

after having no sleep for thirty six hours and getting drug in for a nine hour interrogation like that it's a nightmare the police if you look at it these. days and when you break you mutinied you'll tell them whatever they want to hear. and i would not have told anything they want to tell. you. why.

why wasn't a little stronger. why couldn't i just keep telling them look i didn't do it i didn't do it i was their target and that was it you know they found an easy target and they got it. you know nobody's ever apologized. and nobody's ever recognized long it was done. nobody knows unless you've been through it yourself trust me a death penalty case is a lot different than just a regular murder case i have. that i mean it's year after year after year three different appeals why put a. amalie through the suffering of having to have to relive that for the next

twenty years or fifty years old twenty years from now or be seven am i not even be alive i might not even be alive to see justice served for my daughter. sarah says washee appreciates the state's hard work in going for the worst possible punishment she just wants everything to be over. after a court hearing in february the prosecutor and the defense attorney walked up to us and said that change. was wanting to put offer on the table to where he would change a plea of not guilty to guilty for life in prison no eligibility of corowa. they flat out told us we would have one more court hearing it would be done over with when we walked out that's it. if they take his offer that he

put on the table we won't have to go through all the appeals he would spend the rest of his life in prison without parole. i mean i want justice served he committed the crime he committed the murder he needs to suffer the consequences but i don't feel like killing him is that's not going to bring my daughter back. i just want them to take the offer. so we can try to move on with our life. and condemned to problematic hell or has just hours left to lead the execution is making national headlines and wire will be put to death by a combination of drugs and never before used in the us for this purpose or this new

drug combination was originally designed as a backup for suborbital which ohio has used and so now. is the. execution. this. time was. a. convicted killer dennis mcguire spent the final moments of his life gasping for breath as the state of ohio for the first time used an untried two drug method of

lethal injection he reportedly gas then snorted during the twenty six minutes it took the drugs to kill them. it was the longest execution by lethal injection and u.s. history. long time witnesses to executions were stunned that the boy was kind of a rattling good. there was. no a couple times he definitely choking. at this point it is entirely premature to consider this execution protocol to be anything other than a failed. as an experiment by the state of ohio the people of the state of ohio should be appalled and what was done here today in their name.

simply not only believe because it's exactly what. i don't know what this means going forward maybe the governor is rightly appalled at what just happened decides and he's going to start a reprieve. or commuting sentences or you know i don't know. the only failure is you as a lawyer want to buy is a saw so you should perish the same way typical lawyer. loto know people pretty straight and blows their own. channel want to get your own reality and the results are in the experiment was a fail and i think we're talking about exactly what we argued dennis mcguire was

going to suffocate to death and that that was going to be terrifying and horrifying for him to experience. the new terror of watching my date's over the more nineteen the. know what cruel and unusual punishment is with this is nearly every choice sr says she knows her sister suffered terror in pain and she was raped sodomized choked and killed by dennis mcguire she says he was treated more humanely today than her sister was treated and it was time for him to face his judgement you're going to people that are going to stay so long given the death. it should be painless type of thing he said to go that way said to be tortured to death. did you ever actually consider getting to the difference you have to. you have to come face to face with your own mortality. and for me it was. facing

the fact that one day they may come to me lay me on the table stick a needle in my own. shut down my organs when i want. you know i've survived my first year done quite a bit i'm told. trying to. control things or. because everything's happened everything happens quickly. i spent fifteen years locked in a cell for twenty three hours a day in the what was once the bloodiest prison in the country i had visits from my family maybe five times in the fifteen years out there every day i would do the same thing it was the same monotonous thing wake up make coffee my bubble prepare for the day same thing saw sunshine three hours when. you sit there in wait to die. after having only been out for just over a year sometimes feel like a mad hatter and wonder you know. it's still very much

a dream to me at times. i'm just. on many more exonerations is it going to take before we as a society. realize that. this is not working and we actually do something about it thank you. because he's gone into a nihilistic fever that's why we got it. out the traveling across america what makes america take the show is the genius of this place especially american hero this is it we only point which i'll admit is gone insane we always are on the greatest symbol. the whole culture is

a party that. we're starting last with is going to headed east into this swamp we go into the belly of the bee i think i want to leave now doesn't get any more ground zero the baby completely. if my name is jim. or. all my dope on i sixty metal in london i said do you know. joe far under our former isis fighters and now boarding a philippine naval ship. but not for me nad sounding name that i. just aren't up to

the us still don't know what's waiting for them. to. be here and i do not feel. just. can't make it out of. them no my. father moxy. little. loop.
