Ohio: Death penalty cases to proceed

Bill Marshall says the court's decision will make it difficult for a
group of about 20 Ohio inmates to continue arguing that Ohio's lethal
injection procedures violate the constitutional ban on cruel and unusual
punishment.
Marshall handles litigation on behalf of the state.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld Kentucky's injection
process, which is similar to the one used in Ohio and many other states.

Some legal experts believe the court's decision wasn't definitive and
leaves room for viable cases to be made against lethal injection
procedures in other states.
