Lawyers want info after failed Ohio execution

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Lawyers challenging Ohio’s lethal injection process want to interview a death row inmate whose problem-plagued execution was halted after two hours.

Federal public defenders asked U.S. District Court Judge Gregory Frost on Thursday to order that condemned killer Romell Broom be made available to them for a legal deposition.

Lawyers David Stebbins and Allen Bohnert also want to talk to all the people involved in Tuesday’s failed attempt to put Broom to death.

The lawyers say information about the unsuccessful execution is crucial to a pending lawsuit before Frost challenging the constitutionality of the injection process.

Gov. Ted Strickland halted Broom’s execution Tuesday after state prison workers performing the execution tried unsuccessfully to find a usable vein.

The birthers, the tea baggers, the screamers, and the deathers continued extreme minority presence will become tiresome to mainstream America, if it has not already done so. To all the birthers in La, La Land, it is on you to prove to all of us that your assertion is true, if there are people who were there and support your position then show us the video (everyone has a price), either put up or frankly shut-up. I heard Orly Taitz, is selling a tape (I think it’s called “Money, Lies and Video tape”). She is from Orange County, CA, now I know what the mean when they say “behind the Orange Curtain”, when they talk about Orange County, the captial of Conspiracy Theories. You know Obama has a passport, he travel abroad before he was a Senator, but I guess they were in on it. In my opinion the Republican Party has been taken over the most extreme religious right (people who love to push their beliefs on others while trying to take away the rights of those they just hate) and that’s who they need to extract from their party if they real want to win. Good Luck, because as they said in WACO, “We Ain’t Coming Out”. I heard that she now wants to investigate the “Republican 2009 Summer of Love” list: Assemblyman, Michael D. Duvall (CA), Senator John Ensign (NV), Senator Paul Stanley (TN), Governor Mark Stanford (SC), Board of Ed Chair, and Kristin Maguire AKA Bridget Keeney (SC).
