Ohio Execution: Five minutes later he began to convulse

Ohio inmate Dennis McGuire was executed today for the 1994 rape and murder of a young pregnant woman. He was put to death with a new combination of lethal drugs. Witnesses say he convulsed and gasped for nearly 10 minutes before dying, a scenario that's reigniting debate about the death penalty. Dayton Daily News Reporter Josh Sweigart witnessed the execution and discussed it on AC360 Later.
