Condemned killer seeks delay for Ohio execution
Ohio inmate Gary Otte seeks to delay his Sept. 13 lethal injection arguing the method risks pain due to insufficient consciousness checks. He also asks Cleveland-area court to rule death penalty unconstitutional for his crime committed in 1992 in Parma. Authorities call the challenge untimely and oppose the stay.

Deliberations resume Monday in Elyria case
Jurors in the Cody Jones trial deliberated about six hours without a verdict on Thursday. They reported a decision on at least one charge but remained deadlocked on another, delaying further deliberations to Monday due to a juror prior commitment. Jones faced three charges after an April 23, 2016 incident with Elyria police during a frisk of a man going through trash.
