Ohioans to Stop Executions / May 15, 2015

Mentally ill murderers would avoid death penalty under new Ohio Senate bill

Under Senate Bill 162, the death penalty could not be imposed on a murderer with an illness such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder that “significantly impaired” his or her ability to exercise rational judgment, follow the law, or appreciate the nature of their crime.
