we're learning new details about the killing of a metro p.c.s. employee who was murdered on the job saturday evening police say they have the man who did it the sheriff's office says he goes by the nickname. 21 year old james rhodes is charged with the murder of 20 year old shelby farrow. which. means she's in the news here in the chair in the wrist and with a 40 glock every bullet exiting. the

video shows her standing and then she collapsed to her knees she was reaching for the. she fought for. 20 minutes before she died. i think about that every day where she reaches for the. struggle to take even a few steps towards her daughter's vigil she says tonight the pain of shelby's loss is real i'm going to make sure if it takes her last breath that he needs to get that down and. we begin to shoulder to look at the chaos surrounding executions in the united states now that many of the drugs use release the injections are no longer available the execution drugs scarcity stems from the receipt of manufacture. as 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 scaling back to june 3rd of 2009 really slagle he ended up committing suicide 3 days before the execution very midst jr on september 25th was executed wrong phillips was next on nov 14th 2013 he was. and. that is where. all 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 1989 rape and murder of pregnant woman joy stewart. the state is planning to inject him with a 2 drug mix that's never been used in the next occasion before. we presented our case to the judge to stop the execution. we argue that dennis is going to essentially feel be consciously aware of feeling like he is going to suffocate like he is suffocating because he is suffocating because of the way the drugs work . so now we sit and wait expecting a decision any time today. yes. sure. it was the relief. it

is. going to. find. tonight. right here right here this is alan barnard from the federal public defender is office i'm not. busy sure. you all say what you're going to buy today no not that i'm aware of. for the 2nd 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 149 people falsely convicted

of crimes were freed in 2015 nearly 40 percent of those cases were charged as. a thing. just. to see after spending 15 years against president jefferson parish may and is free d.n.a. evidence exonerated david tippett all who is on death row at angola serving a sentence for the rape and murder of his 14 year old cousin his attorneys are speaking right now in the 7th ward. you dream of it every day it's not just 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 only. 3.

david. greene freed today he spent 23 hours a day in solitary confinement during his 15 years at angola now 38 years old he went to jail when he was 23. if i had just gone off and done something else. every day for 15 years every day. for. ever and ever.

they came. to take him in. and question him. and after that. he never came home. every. night. believe. parent anguish cry he's 14 year old daughter dead brutally murdered that reality is adorable enough the family now cope with the fact that a relative. 22 year old. cry.

they walked into the corridor and made it sound like i just walked into this interrogation room and spilled my guts. i used to be one of those people who believed that someone would never confess to something they didn't do. and society as a whole believes that. but yet here i am here i said. this to your choice change your case 2013 yes it's time for each of you is going to

prison if he's going to ask of the state. personally i prefer to see if you're seeing. the reverse really. the a. 3 year. old girl. didn't. matter to you when you hear her 828 at 2 30 pm. to keep. busy. instead they're just. smile and lie it ain't nothing we've all slop

it all all it's do you think you see. it 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 2 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 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 falls. you know i've been doing this a long time i think my 1st death penalty case was 988 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 they. as the state of ohio prepared to use to drug method of lethal injection for the 1st time for dennis mcguire 6 accused his attorneys argued this week that he would suffer from a condition known as air hunger mcguire's attorney unsuccessfully challenge the 2 drug protocol in federal court this week. we feel he's going to start to obstruct right away looking for his head and coming up. there may be vomiting he's not going to agree he's we trying to movies we try to clear 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 the head. you should be able to see the muscles tense in the new

release intensity releasing you know it's more than one doctor who thinks it's quite possible that he's still going to be alive that 5 it for. a car. or an. why a paradise with some ground turned into a round the experimentation field but agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritants there's no question otherwise why would that the chemical company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments but often in day you have many of these people one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the

government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of environmental research going on in hawaii whether these companies feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power. you know world of big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wait to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks.

and. it's a job that is very thankless and it's not very popular. you know now how many hours he's. not be there. when there's an execution. and 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 we've got states that are just kind of. i don't know where they're experimenting on our clients the media 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 1st 5 or 6 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 he had no driver's license he had no idea other than the one from death row. group of people. like myself. i became absolutely convinced beings innocent them for about 4 hours of work. if you read the autopsy report. you knew right away. completely. because. he was helping chris search for her when she turned. and she wasn't there. because he was.

looking for for 36 hours. just laying down to go to sleep. at 1st i thought it was just a. relationship. or. a . it's designed to elicit a confession. all in a way to. manipulate

you. my witnesses. for me he explained in detail executed. after having no sleep for 36 hours and. it's a nightmare. if you. look at these. and when you break you you beat you you'll tell them whatever they want to hear. and i would not have told me anything you want to tell. you.

why. why wasn't i 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 recognize it was done. nobody knows unless you've been through it yourself trust me and death penalty case

is a lot different than just a regular murder case. that i mean it's year after year after year going through different appeals why put a family through the suffering of having to have to relive that for the next 20 years or 50 years old 20 years from now or be 7 am i not even be alive i might not even be alive to see justice served for my daughter. vera 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 not 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 cancer which ohio has used and so now dr. oz is not in 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 1st time used an untried 2 drug method of lethal injection he reportedly gas and snorted during the 26 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 the boy was kind of a rattling good. there was. 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 begging. 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 to sides 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 need terror of watching let it suffer less than more 19 . 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 you should have to go that way said to be tortured to death . did you ever actually consider getting to the

details 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 my own. shut down my organs when i want. you know i've survived my 1st year done quite a bit i'm told. trying to. control things i guess. because everything's happened everything happens quickly. i spent 15 years locked in a cell for 23 hours a day in the what was once the bloody use prison in the country i had visits from my family maybe 5 times in the 15 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 3 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 use. how 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.

good with the just that it was too easily it will. live no more so they say their. roles here to stay the course of this as with most of. this is new and with. ok see that book i know is that deal but you busy also look at the model you punish diplo it's most it's a small show such as the flu it's almost like. you know when you want.

to. join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure when i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. a lot of people talk about ponzi scam to people you know in a ponzi scheme is. that . a lot of good and evil. that didn't go well and a lot of. people.
