Governor Eric Holcomb announced that he and Attorney General Todd Rokita are seeking a resumption of executions in Indiana prisons starting with convicted murderer Joseph Corcoran.
After years of effort, the Indiana Department of Correction has acquired the drug “pentobarbital” which can be used to carry out executions.
The governor says he is fulfilling his duty to follow the law and move forward appropriately.
In 1997 Joseph Corcoran was found guilty of killing four people in Fort Wayne.
He exhausted his appeals in 2016 and has been awaiting execution.
