Death penalty too troubled to continue
Executions require absolute trust that the government gets it right 100 percent of the time, but I honestly don’t know how we, citizens of Ohio, can have absolute trust in the justice system when we read about the experiences of people like Dale Johnston (“Wrongful convictions make death penalty too risky,” last Monday’s Dispatch op-ed).
We know our criminaljustice system got it wrong in sending nine innocent men to death row. But wrongful convictions are only part of the problem.
Ohio’s death penalty has proven to be a risky proposition. Along with botched executions, including the state’s last execution, that of Dennis McGuire in 2014, Ohio has seemingly engaged in back-alley deals to obtain lethal-injection drugs, has cloaked executions in secrecy and plans to use risky drugs that turn executions into experiments.
I don’t see how Ohio’s death penalty is worth the risk with all the uncertainty and lack of transparency. We would all be better off if Gov. John Kasich kept executions on hold.

Also, it’s really your fault because you didn’t have the items very well secured. I bet a lot of other people have also tried to steal these exact same items.”
Donald Trump to the nation — “My son is a great person. Things were just happening so fast. Besides, nothing really came of this because the meeting with the Russian turned out to be a big nothing. Also, it’s really the Obama Administration’s fault because they let the Russian into the country. I bet a lot of other people would have also taken this meeting.” Executive Director of School Achievement YMCA of Central Ohio
