Ohio executes Roderick Davie

Roderick Davie (38) was executed by lethal injection in the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility on Tuesday morning.

Family of Davie's two victims sat quietly together as the execution proceded.

Davie was convicted of the 1991 murder of a man and a woman at his former workplace in Trunbull County. In the attack he also shot a man three times who lived to attend the execution.

After making a final statement in which he apologized to the family members of his victims and the survivor of his attack, as well as thanking his own family for their love and support, the lethal cocktail was administered. The warden pronounced him dead at 10:31a.m.

Davie is the seventh death row inmate to be executed by Ohio this year, and the 40th since 1999.

  1. This sack of crap shot two coworkers in the back,stole a wallet,beat a woman to death with a folding chair,tried to run over a man with a truck and then after failing at that he tried to gouge that same mans eyes out with a stick.
    all before lunch.

    His own narcissism killed him. and our world is a better place without him in it.
