Ohio Governor Commutes Death Sentence Of Condemned Killer Of 3 Who Claimed Innocence
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A condemned inmate had his life spared Thursday when Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland cited "legitimate questions" about evidence used to convict the inmate, even though the governor believes the prisoner committed the crimes. . . . Police say Keith entered an apartment in Bucyrus on the evening of Feb. 13, 1994, and sprayed it with gunfire, killing Marichell Chatman, 24; her 4-year-old daughter, Marchae; and the Marichell's aunt, Linda Chatman, 39. Three others were wounded, including siblings Quanita Reeves, 7, and Quentin Reeves, 4. Marichell Chatman was the sister of an undercover police informant whose efforts led to a drug raid weeks earlier during which Keith was arrested.Click Here For The Full Story......
