BIZ United Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 5.-Gov-
ernor Vic Donahey today refused to
extend executive clemency to Floyd
Hewitt, II, condemned to die after
shutdown Friday for a double murder
at Conneaut, Ohio, last year.
Although the Governor was out of
the city, he instructed his Office to
announce he would abide by recon-
mendations of the State board of
clemency which reviewed Hewitt's
conviction and sentence Wednesday.
The board did not recommend
mercy and the doomed boys last
hope automatically was lost.
Hewitt was convicted of killing
little Fred Brown Jr. of Conneaut
with baseball bat, after beating
the boys mother to death with a
poker. He was not tried for the
latter murder.
