Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has criticised the state's years-long moratorium on executions, calling it a mockery of the justice system and the dead and their families. His final annual report on Ohio’s capital punishment system was released by Yost, calling for legislation allowing new execution methods such as nitrogen gas and for the Trump administration to resolve long-standing issues with obtaining lethal-injection drugs. The report comes after the group Ohioans to Stop Executions released a report alleging a "wrongful conviction crisis," highlighting that for every five people the state has executed, one has been exonerated from Death Row. Ohio hasn't executed since Robert Van Hook in July 2018. Gov. Mike DeWine has said he will not allow executions during his tenure, arguing they could jeopardize access to drugs for thousands of Ohioans. Some Republican lawmakers have proposed bills to lift the death-penalty moratorium, but none have yet to gain traction at the Statehouse.
