Man Who Killed 16-Year-Old Girl Executed

COLUMBUS, Ohio — A serial rapist convicted of strangling a 16-year-old girl was executed Tuesday, despite his concerns that he could be violently allergic to Ohio's lethal injection drug.

Darryl Durr failed to persuade federal courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court, to delay his execution.

He was pronounced dead at 10:36 a.m.

Prison staffers say Durr was cooperative but appeared anxious before he execution. Ohio prisons spokeswoman Julie Walburn said he refused to eat or drink, saying he was fasting for religious reasons.

Durr, 46, said he was innocent and did not receive a fair trial.
