LEBANON, OHIO – Austin Myers, left, has a date with the executioner. The cold-blooded 19-year-old killer was sentenced to death for the murder of Justin Back, 18. Myers and his family made a desperate last minute plea to save his life but those efforts were shot down.
"It's only going to cause more pain and suffering for another family," Myers said.
His mother also made a tearful, desperate courtroom plea. "When I'm looking at all these pictures, I describe it like my boy - I love him with all my heart - he just has a light in him in all of his pictures and then he doesn't," Danielle Copeland said, of the changes she saw after splitting with her husband.
