William Zuern - Ohio

The State of Ohio executed William Zuern this morning after he decided not to appeal to the United States Supreme Court. Zuern refused a final comment and stuffed his ears with toilet paper so he couldn't hear the prison guards talking to him during his final hours. He was executed for the 1984 stabbing death of a guard in the jail where he was being held pending trial on another charge.
