June 30 (UPI) -- The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday refused to hear the case of an Ohio death row prisoner sentenced to death for the rape and murder of a 12-year-old boy in 1986.
Attorneys for Danny Hill, 55, said he should be ineligible for execution because he is intellectually disabled. Court documents indicate he had an IQ of 55-68 at the time of his trial for the death of Raymond Fife, well below what the state considers to be average.
