Execution Nears For Dayton Convicted Killer

COLUMBUS, Ohio —

State lawmakers said a Miami Valley convicted killer is set to be executed in late July.

Darrell Ferguson, 25, of Dayton, pleaded guilty in the stabbing deaths of three people in 2001. All of the murders came as Ferguson robbed his victims for money to buy drugs.

A three-judge panel gave Ferguson the death penalty. He told the court if given the chance to win his freedom, he would likely kill again.

Ferguson’s execution date is set for July 26.
