Frederick Treesh
Frederick Treesh, 48, was put to death by lethal injection at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville, Ohio, on March 6, 2013. Warden Donald Morgan said he pronounced Treesh dead at 10:37 a.m. after a single dose of pentobarbital. His attorneys argued that his rights were violated during interrogation and that his seizure disorder meant the lethal injection would cause him suffering. The governor denied clemency after a parole board recommendation, and Treesh made a final statement before the execution.
Cause of death, as reported: Executed by the state. His attorneys argued that his seizure disorder meant the lethal injection process would cause him suffering, and that his rights were violated during interrogation.
