26 March 2010 :

An investigation released by the Ohio prisons department says Lawrence Reynolds tried to commit suicide taking about 30 prescribed tablets of antidepressants. He likely "cheeked" the pills and stockpiled them. The report says medical and security staff failed to properly monitor Reynolds' medication intake and to search him. An investigator writes that Reynolds "stated that his intention was to end it and not give the state any satisfaction of killing him." Forty-three-year-old Lawrence Reynolds was executed by lethal injection on March 16 after a 7-day postponement. He had been found unconscious in his death row cell on March 7.
