WASHINGTON (AFP) A man on death row in Ohio is suing the state on grounds that due to his obesity he would suffer unduly during lethal injection, the Ohio Attorney General's office said Tuesday. "He will argue that he is so overweight that he has poor veins, and his attorneys are questioning whether or not a lethal injection will be sufficient to cause death," Jim Gravelle, a spokesman for the Ohio Attorney General, told AFP.
