Botched execution could renew 'cruel' challenges

Posted

FILE - In this Jan. 17, 2014, file photo, Missie McGuire, left, listens to her husband, Dennis McGuire, at a news conference where they announced their planned lawsuit against the state over the unusually slow execution of his father, also named Dennis McGuire, in Dayton, Ohio. The state said Tuesday, April 29, 2014, that it is boosting the amount of the two-drug combo of a sedative and painkiller Òto allay any remaining concernsÓ after the last execution, when Dennis McGuire made repeated snorting-like gasps as he died.
