Ohio Supreme Court denies stay of execution for Cooey

The Ohio Supreme Court this afternoon denied a motion from convicted double murderer Richard Cooey to stay his execution, scheduled for 10 a.m. Tuesday at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility near Lucasville.
A court spared Cooey, of Akron, five years ago, when he was just 12 hours from execution.

Cooey awaits execution

CINCINNATI ? Prison staff examined veins on an Ohio death row inmate who argues his obesity prevents humane lethal injection and found nothing that should cause a problem in delivering the deadly chemicals, the state said Monday.
A more detailed examination on Richard Cooey, 41, will be conducted Tuesday morning, when he is scheduled to die for killing two college students in 1986, said Andrea Carson, a spokeswoman for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.
Cooey was waiting Monday for the U.S. Supreme Court to rule on his appeal as the state prepared for its first execution in more than a year. He was transported from a Youngstown prison to the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville, where he is scheduled to die.

Cooey ordered a special meal Monday that included a T-bone steak with A-1 sauce, onion rings, french fries, four eggs over easy, toast with butter, hash browns, a pint of rocky road ice cream, a Mountain Dew soft drink and bear claw pastries, Carson said.

Strap his ass to a treadmill for about 20 minutes after eating that shit and I think the problem will work itself out.

Inmate executed after Supreme Court rejects obese argument
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- An Ohio death row inmate was executed Tuesday after the Supreme Court rejected his last-minute plea that he was too overweight to be put to death.

Asked if he had any final words, Carson quoted Cooey as saying, "You haven't paid attention to anything I've had to say for the past 22 years, so why would you think that I would think you're going to pay attention to what I have to say now?"

Ohio does not serve a "last meal," as death-row inmates are given the opportunity to eat breakfast before a scheduled execution, Carson told CNN. But on Monday night, she said, Cooey ate a "special meal" consisting of a T-bone steak, hash browns, french fries, four eggs over easy, onion rings, four pieces of toast, a pint of Rocky Road ice cream, Mountain Dew and bear claw pastries. He did not eat breakfast Tuesday, Carson said.
