Alva Campbell, a convicted killer, escaped execution in Lucasville Ohio when the executioner could not find a vein to inject them with the drug cocktail. Convicted of murdering an 18 year old in a car jacking, he was strapped to a trolley in the death chamber for 25 minutes before they gave up. He then gave what must be the quote of the year .....
Wiping away tears and shaking hands with members of the execution team he said "This is a day I'll never forget". Actually he will only remember it until June the 5th, 2019 when the state will try to kill him again .... but his lawyers want the firing squad as an alternative method. He's managed to avoid the punishment since 1998, his innocent victim, Charles Dials, was just 18 when Campbell cold bloodily murdered him.
