The Cleveland Coalition Against the Death Penalty will be sponsoring a few events in light of Richard Cooey's planned execution.

At 7 p.m. Monday, a community prayer vigil against the execution -- and in memory of Dawn McCreery and Wendy Offredo -- will be held at the Church of the Resurrection at 32001 Cannon Road in Solon.

Coalition Spokesperson Richard Greenbaum explained the evening protest will call on lawmakers to spare Cooey's life.
 
 
At midnight, the group will leave for Lucasville to join the morning protest outside of the prison where Cooey will be executed at 10 a.m. on Tuesday.

A local silent witness will be demonstrating at the Old Stone Church in Cleveland's Public Square on Tuesday from 9:30 a.m. to 10:15 a.m.

What would be an appropriate end for this sociopath? Should we just let him rot in jail? Maybe we should feed him prime beef and load him up on carbs so he can die a slow death. The only appropriate way for Cooey to go IS lethal injection.

Let the Cleveland group have their worthless token vigil...but don't say it's honoring the victims too. I wouldn't want to be included with that piece of crap worthless sof the earth.

How are you going to honor the victims by keeping the person who murdered them alive to go on with the rest of his life getting fatter? How has the sociopath who murdered those girls honored them? The Bible says an eye for an eye. So that means his life for the life of those two girls that he killed.

I bet if these people who are holding the vigil wouldn't be there if their daughter was murdered by this nutcase.
