Filiaggi death sentence affirmed by Ohio Supreme Court
The Ohio Supreme Court upheld the death sentence for James Filiaggi in the 1994 killing of his ex-wife Lisa Filiaggi, while ordering the case back to Common Pleas Court to reconsider non capital offenses. Justice Stratton said a three judge panel must decide the non capital counts, since a single judge cannot handle those while capital counts are on a three-judge panel.
