Last Request Denied Man Electrocuted in Oklahoma
McALESTER Okla Otto Austin Loel a 45 year old knife slayer of a Compton California house wife died in Oklahoma's electric chair after midnight with his final request ungranted. Loel asked for a cough drop and none were available. He was pronounced dead at 1207 am three years to the hour after killing Mrs Elizabeth Henderson 31 a former Newark Ohio resident in an Oklahoma City motel. He was convicted Oct 22 1955 by an Oklahoma county district court jury. He said Henderson was making a cross country trip with him. He was arrested in Florida in January 1955 one year after the killing. Loel told the jury he awakened in the motel to find Henderson attempting an unnatural sex act and that he struck her with a knife. Prosecution argued the slaying was unjustified. The Oklahoma Criminal Court of Appeals upheld the death sentence last August declaring the act was not necessary or justified.
