Family sues over Ohio execution as cruel and unconstitutional
The McGuire family files a federal suit alleging the 26 minute Ohio execution was cruel and unusual and that Hospira sold drugs for use in capital punishment. They accuse the drug maker of allowing use of sodium thiopental midazolam and hydromorphone despite knowing their role in executions and seek damages above 75 000. The suit notes the prolonged gasping and writhing during the procedure and calls for a moratorium on capital punishment in Ohio.
