Contents/Summary
- Summary
- On September 15th, 2009, Romell Broom was scheduled to die by lethal injection at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville, Ohio. The execution attempt lasted for two-and-a-half hours, during which time the medical team tried to establish intravenous access, sticking needles into Mr. Broom a total of 18 times. The efforts to inject Mr. Broom remained unsuccessful and Ohio Governor, Ted Strickland, finally granted a reprieve of one week. Since then Mr. Broom’s lawyers have been litigating in the Ohio courts to prevent the state from attempting to execute Romell Broom a second time.
