A doctor accused of poisoning his wife with cyanide has been extradited to Ohio from the Mediterranean island of Cyprus to face murder charges. His lawyer has said his 39 year old client fought extradition to the United States because he feared he would face the death penalty in Ohio. I think he should. The former Akron general Hospital doctor could be sentenced to life in prison if convicted.
Federal and local authorities escorted Yazeed Essa to Cleveland's Cuyahoga County Jail on Friday. He faces one charge of aggravated murder in the 2005 death of his wife Rosemarie. A coroner determined she lost consciousness and crashed while driving after being given a cyanide pill. Essa disappeared in March 2006 and was arrested months later in Cyprus. He deserves everything he gets in my opinion.
