Obese death row inmate [PHOTO], A condemned Ohio inmate who weighs 450 pounds should be spared based on
claims raising doubts about his legal representation, not because he
says he's so fat he can't be humanely executed, the Ohio Parole Board
ruled Friday.
The Ohio Parole Board voted to recommend clemency
for 480-pound death row inmate Ronald Post, who contends he is too fat
to be executed.
The board also voted to recommend to Gov. John
Kasich that Post's sentence be changed to life without the possibility
of parole, The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer reported Friday. Go here for more and a photo.
