Ohio Murderer Can Appeal Again:  The Ohio Supreme Court appointed a new attorney Monday to reopen the challenge to murderer Steven Cepec's death sentence.  Marina Malenic of the Gazette reports that last December the court upheld Cepec's conviction and death sentence by a 6-1 vote.  Four years ago, Cepec was convicted and sentenced to death for murdering a 73-year-old man with a claw hammer and a lamp cord six days after his release from prison.  An earlier Gazette story by Nick Glunt notes that Cepect, a harmless drug offender, was assigned to a rehab program when he broke into Frank Munz's home to steal money for drugs.  He beat and choked Munz to death because he resisted.  Ohio's execution process has been tied up since 2014 with lawsuits challenging the drugs used for lethal injection.
