Another Delay

Gov., DeWine…delays…by three years…the September execution of a death row inmate…sentenced to die for killing two men in a robbery that netted $40. The governor’s action was one of several reprieves he’s issued in recent years as the state struggles to find an adequate supply of drugs for lethal injection. The governor’s reprieve moved the Sept. 15 execution date for Kareem Jackson, to Dec. 10, 2025. It marks the second two men in 1997…after robbing them of $40, marijuana and a cell phone.
