Live Execution Darryl Durr Today On Trends Hot Topics --- Live Execution Darryl Durr Today. Darryl Durr, 46, was declared dead at 10:36 a.m. ET. Initial word from the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility, where the execution took place, is that there were no complications with the execution.
Darryl Durr has taken some visitors and spoken to a woman he calls his wife several times on the phone since his arrival Monday morning at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility, Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction Spokeswoman Julie Walburn said at a media briefing this morning.
A prison official who was present told ABC News that as the process began Durr clenched his fists and grimaced while holding his head up for about 10 seconds, before putting his head down. The official, who declined to be identified, said it wasn't clear whether Durr was in pain or reacting to the moment. Durr had been convicted of the rape and murder of 16-year-old Angel Vincent in 1988. He is the 37th inmate executed in Lucasville, Ohio's so-called "death house" at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility since 1999 and the fourth person to be executed in Ohio this year.
Durr arrived at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville Monday morning as the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected his last-minute attempts to halt the execution. Later in the day, Gov. Ted Strickland denied Durr clemency, and the U.S. Supreme Court late Monday refused to hear his case.
Durr had been seeking DNA testing of a necklace belonging to the victim, said his lawyer, Dennis Sipe. Durr also argued, in separate lawsuits, that the state cannot administer the drugs used in the lethal injection without a prescription, and that he is allergic to anesthesia. After the appeals court rejected the suits, Durr's lawyers went to the U.S. Supreme Court, which had not issued a decision as of Monday evening.
