Crime and Courts Wednesday, May 30, 2012 Kasich denies clemency for death row inmate The Ohio Justice and Policy Center says Abdul Awkal is too mentally ill to understand his execution Story by KELLI FITZPATRICK |
| | |
| Gov. John Kasich has denied clemency for death row inmate Abdul Awkal. Awkal was convicted of murdering his wife and brother-in-law at a Cuyahoga County courthouse in 1992. His execution date is set for June 6.
Awkal has a schizo-affective disorder. He believes he has direct communication with the president and is being executed by order of the CIA.
David Singleton is the executive director of the Ohio Justice and Policy Center and has helped Awkal and his attorneys. He says Awkal is too mentally ill to understand his execution. |
The state parole board voted eight-to-one earlier this month to follow through with the execution.
The board concluded Awkal planned the murders and was sane at the time of the shootings. Inmates must understand the reason they’re being put to death in order to be deemed competent for execution in Ohio. |
