Winchester, VA – The New York Post reports that the Ohio execution of Alva Campbell, was called off yesterday after an unsuccessful attempt. Campbell had faked paralysis decades ago before overpowering a police officer, stealing his gun, carjacking an 18 year old, and driving with him for hours before shooting the boy in the head as he crouched in his truck. Ironically, Campbell’s health problems are the reason his execution was delayed. Campbell, who has a colostomy bag and requires a walker, was given a pillow wedge to help difficult breathing at his failed execution, but in the end, the medical team could not access any usable veins. Interestingly, he petitioned to be executed by firing squad, but was turned down because the judge doubted the legislature’s ability to pass a bill which would allow it.
