“Indiana will put to death a man who was convicted in the 2001 rape and murder of a teenage girl, the state’s third [pre-planned prisoner killing] since resuming capital punishment last year. The [pre-planned prisoner killing] of Roy Lee Ward is scheduled before sunrise Friday at the state prison in Michigan City, Indiana. The 53-year-old has exhausted his legal options to challenge the sentence. Ward’s [pre-planned prisoner killing] by lethal injection comes amid questions about Indiana’s handling of pentobarbital, the drug it has used in recent [pre-planned prisoner killings].” (10/08/25)
