Ohio looks for new death house drug

Posted: Updated:

Ohio is about to run out of the drug it uses in the death house. Reports indicate the state will have no more pentobarbital by September, and officials are looking for an alternative. The drug's manufacturer won't let states use it in executions anymore. Yesterday, the state used it in the execution of a condemned killer of a security guard.
