On November 14, 2013, he is scheduled to be put to death. Ohio's governor denied a request for executive clemency Thursday after a federal judge refused to block the execution of a child killer who's in line to be the first inmate to get a new, untested lethal drug cocktail.

Drone strike aftermath: Militant 'Kennedys' pose bigger threat than Pakistani Taliban

Pakistani Taliban commander Hakimullah Mehsud, seen here in 2008, was killed by a U.S. drone strike on Friday. His group has been blamed for 45,000 deaths but it is not considered the region's most dangerous militant organization. Photo by AFP - Getty Images, file.


      In Kabul, Afghanistan, hours after the death of Pakistani Taliban leader Hakimullah Mehsud, the militant group's counterparts across the border condemned the "cowardly U.S. drone attack." It was said that the Afghan Taliban state, "If America believes that by martyring mujahedeen, they will somehow create a void and reach their selfish aims then they are greatly mistaken." Mehsud's Pakistani Taliban is responsible for the death of at least 40,000 civilians and 5,000 troops during its decade-long insurgency against the country's government. The Pakistani Taliban have also been known to support their Afghan brothers-in-arms, who are a separate group under the leadership of the elusive Mullah Mohammed Omar.
