Clemency Granted in Ohio Man's Death Sentence
Gov. Michael V. DiSalle commuted Frank Poindexter's death sentence to life imprisonment eleven hours before his scheduled execution at the Ohio Penitentiary. Poindexter and accomplice Hollis Leigh were involved in the 1959 murder of Mrs. Herschel Hires. Leigh received life. The governor cited equality before the law and disparity in punishments for the two masterminds as grounds for clemency. Poindexter becomes parole eligible after 20 years.
