ispaich Staff Reporter
Sandy Leadstrom and her family
ere expecting Kai Fun Wong for
inner Oct. 4, 1988, but he never
arrived,
Wong, 32, was savagely beaten
and killed that night, by Clarissa
Miller, 16, and Terri Best, 14.
“f just keep thinking maybe if
we'd gone over there we could have
stopped something,” Leadstrom said.
“Pm sull very angry, and I'm
ven more angry now that she’s trying
to find a loophole in the justice
ystem.”
Miller is petitioning for a new
trial because of what she says was
inadequate legal advice.
Miller, who had been living with
Vong, has said that she and her
lriend Terri decided to rob Wong at
his home and accidentally beat him to
eath. Now 19, Miller is serving a life
sentence at the Ohio Reformatory
for Women in Marysville. Best, now
%, was released Tuesday from the
ustody of the Ohio Department of
fouth Services.
Leadstrom said she and her fam-
ily, who knew Wong through work,
still feel the effects of that evening's
tragic events.
“Kai was a very likable person,”
she said. “Never once in four years
id I see that guy mad. Never once.
“f was so shocked when I found
out what happened, I guess because it
ade me realize it can happen to
anyone.”
Leadstrom had met Wong
hrough her husband. Her family of-
en invited Wong over for dinner or
ard games.
“He was like a brother to me,”
she said. “He was a very good friend
{ my family.”
When she found out two juve-
ules had killed Wong, Leadstrom
said she thought both the girls should
x tried as adults, Only Miller was
ound over; Best was convicted as a
uvenile because she was not yet 15.
“She turned 15 the day they
uried him,” Leadstrom said. “If it
vad been me, | would have put her in
THE coLumBUS DISPATCH
Sun. oeT. 3, i 99)
Use death penalty,
victim’s friend says
prison for life.
“It sickens me she gets out.”
(Best was released Tuesday. )
Leadstrom believes that Miller
should have been sentenced to death,
even though people under 18 cannot
be tried under the death penalty.
“{ think she (Miller) instigated
the whole thing,” she said. “I am a
firm believer in the death penalty,
and that’s what she should have got-
ten,
“{ don't think that anybody who
can murder in such a brutal way as
they did has a child’s mentality.”
Incensed by what she saw as
sympathetic media coverage, Lead-
strom wrote a letter to The Dispatch
that was published nearly a month —
after Wong’s death. “I find it very
upsetting that the last article written
was centered on how hard defendant
Clarissa Miller cried in court,” she
wrote. “It’s almost as if the public ts
supposed to feel sorry for her.
“Believe me, those were not
tears of sorrow for Kai Wong. The
tears of sorrow were in a room full of
flowers, friends and family, who had
nothing to say goodbye to except a. -
closed casket and a picture of Kat. He
was a very special person and de-
served much more than this.
“It's a nightmare that’ has
changed my life in many ways, and |
feel that the friends and family who
are left behind are the victims now.
Yet, the newspaper seems to think
Miller’s sobbing: in court is the issue.
The issue to me is the fact that the
young people of today are out of
control, and they think it’s OK to kill
because not much happens to them
when they aren't over age 18.
“Tsay Kai Wong had nothing but
love for Miller, and it cost him his
life. She deserves nothing less than
life in prison, certainly not sympathy
for her tears in court.’
Even after three years, Leade.-
strom’s memories are vivid.
“T just don’t understand why she
did it, because he would have given
her anything,” she said.
“People just don’t understand
what a person goes through until it
happens to you.’

Seott Workman, aged 42, died in the electric ehair at the Ohio
Penitentiary on March 31, 1927, for sleying his wife,
-
ia alsa
—s&
After killing his wife, Workmm@m shouted defiance from the win-
dows of his little farmhouse near New Richmond, for nearly two hours
as he paced back and fartn across the body of his wife whom he had
Slain, before he was captured by Sheriff Fred Croswell of Clermont
County and a posse of one-hundred men. With his two babies, youngest
of his brood of nine, clasped against his breast as a shield, Workmam
celled out taunts @md jibes to the posse, who dared not shoot, In
the house ley his wife, Mrs, Nora Welker Workman, 38, with 20 pistol
bullets in her tody fired ty Workmm™m, who loaded and reloaded his
automatic pistol efter each vicious emptying of its chambers into
her prostrate form. He had shot her down as she nursed her youngest
child, a boy of 7 months, Insane., and it is said, unwarranted
~ jealousy had bkzed forth into uncontrolled fury, fired by days of
moonshine drinking, The drink-crezed farmer was finally captured
through a ruse in which Sheriff Fred Croswell, Marshal Harry
Ireton of New Richmond and Charles McAllister, a friend of Workman,
risced their lives, The fact that Workman was seen frequently to
pour himself out « drink froma jug of moonshine liquor while he
held tight to one of his babies with the other, using it as a shield,
gave Sheriff Croswell ean idea. Coswell induced Charles McAllister,
a friend of Workman, to talk to him. McAllister begged Workman to
give hima drink, Finally Workmam called to McAllister to “come
ahead end have one.* McAllister fearlessly walked up to the window
where Workmen stood with his pistol in hand md talked and joked
with Workman while Workman served him drinks from his jug. Workman,
however, was alert, with his pistol in hend, uring this time Sheriff
Croswell end Marshal Ireton had crept around to the rear of the house,
They noiselessly opened the doar. When Sheriff Vroswell saw his |
chence he leaped forward upou Workman and wrested the pistol from his
hend, Marshel Ireton bore him to the floor. Workma was led from the
house handcuffed and protected by deputies was hurried to the Batavia
jail. ‘Threats of lynching were frequently heard among the crowd of
severel hundred persons gathered about the house, but Workman was
closely guarded.
At the jail Workmen admitted he had shot his wife. He declared
he had found a letter written to his wife by a man in Felicity, and said
this wes the cause of his shooting her. He had moved with his family to
the ferm three weeks before from Levene in brown County. Workman had
been euployed by &n automobile accessories manufacturing company in
Auguste, Ky. Mrs. Workman was Mi:s Nora Walker of Augusta, According
to members of the Workman family, the, letter from Felicity to Mrs.
Workmen wes from a friend who sympathized with her in her domestic
troucles, Workman nad recently bean arrested for bootlegging. County
officials also said the Workman children had been neglected and that
tom ship officials were planning to take steps to take the children
eawey from Workmm, Jt was this contemplated step, coupled with drink-
* inspired jealousy thet prompted Workman to his crime, officials said,

Philip Orleck, aged 2, went to his death in the eleétric chair
at the YVhio Penitentiary on Mondey evening, July 18, 1927, for shooting
end killing Urbem Wilford, veteran Mansfield Reformatory guard, in au
attempt to assist others prisoners in the reformatolry to escape. He
head been given a three dey reprieve in arder that he might not be
electrocuted on the Jewish Sabbath, end was the second Jew in the
history of the state to pay the extreme penalty for murder,
"I forgive anybody thet did me any wrong,” the youth said as he
was strapped into the chair at 8:45 P.M. “I bear no malice,” he
repeated aS the mask was adjusted. As guards were making final ad-
justmmats to the straps, Orleck said, “Just a minute, ‘there's something
I went to say." He repeated a Jewish prayer. The current was turned on
et 8:50 P.M. md a minute leter he was dead. Rabbi Jacob Tarshish
attended Orleck in the death chamber. Earlier in the day he had made
ea find appeel to Governor Donahey to spare the youth's life. Ice
erean 1d ceke had comprised his last meal.
"Whe efternoon before his execution, when guards cut short a4
visit between the condemned man end a London, Ohio, woman, Orleck had
clawed the heavy screen wire wiich separated him from the women,
screaming curses upon Warden Preston E, Thomas and the guards who
Bought to separate the couple. Im his frenzy the slayer threatened
the warden's life and told other inmates of the annex that “he bet
ne'd never go to the chair.® Extra precautions were then teka@m to
prevent self-destruction,

THE HISTORY OF THE ELECTRIC CHAIR AT O10 PENITENTIARY
CONTAINS ONE NOTE OF IRONY
Just before the turn of the century, an itinerant broomnaker,
who used the alias of Charles Jackson, roamed Ohio and dabbled rather
unsuccessfully in crime. He was committed to the Penitentiary on
four occasions on charges of Burglary and Larceny, Grand Larceny,
Cutting to Wound, and Murder First Degree
"Jackson" was a tall, slender man whose hair and complexion
were dark. Perhaps his most outstanding feature was the color of
his eyes--a mixture of pale gray, violet and azure blue. His right
cheek bore an inch long scar and on his left forearm he proudly :
carried a tattooed lady in tights. Jackson had a “common" education
and his habits were recorded as "intemperate", which, in view of the
nature of his offenses, seems rather an understatement.
It was during Jackson's second commitment to the penitentiary
on a Grand Larceny charge that he carved his niche in history. In
1897 penitentiary officials began the installation of a new device
for sonia sot and it was discovered that, in his travels, our inmate
had acquired a surprising knowledge of electricity. Thus, it came
about that Jackson installed Ohio's first and only electric chair.
The subject was released from prison, served another penitentiary
term and again turned loose. On November 9, 1910, Jackson came to
West Spring Street for the last time, sentenced to die for First
- Degree Murder. On October 27, 1911 he was summarily executed in the
i
device he had helped to perfect. The real irony, however, is this---
Jackson's real name was Charles Justice: He will be recalled by
4 historians as one who was "HOIST BY HIS OWN PETARD".

THE coluneus DisfeTcH
Ohio has executed 19 youths
First was in 1880, last was in 1956
By Lesiie Pereira
Dispatch Staff Reporter
At age 18, William Taylor re-
ceived the ultimate punishment.
The Columbus youth was sen-
tenced to death for robbing and club-
bing to death a Worthington farmer.
Taylor was 17 at the time.
Taylor was hanged July 26, 1895,
in the old Ohio Penitentiary annex in
Columbus six months after his con-
viction, The Dispatch reported. He is
the only Franklin County resident to
be executed by the state for a crime
he committed as a juvenile, prison
records show.
The law was changed in 1963 to
exclude people younger than 18 when
they committed the crime. Up to that
time, 19 juveniles had been executed
in Ohio. The first was in 1880. The
last in 1956. :
Taylor was the second of 16
youths executed in the Ohio Peniten-
tiary. Three others who killed as
juveniles were executed by hanging
before the gallows was moved to the
Columbus penitentiary in 1890.
Willie Haas. 17, the “child mur-
derer” from Hamilton County, was
the first person in Ohio to die in the
electric chair. Convicted of killing the
wife of a Cincinnati-area man who
had taken him in, Haas, an orphan,
was electrocuted in 1897, the year the
state switched from hanging.
Haas, 16 at time time of the
crime, confessed that he choked and
raped the woman, eventually slitting
her throat and setting her on fire,
according to the book Death Penalty
for Juveniles by Victor Streib.
Haas’ execution drew a large
crowd of onlookers. An article in The
Dispatch described a room full of
spectators, many of them “pushing
and shoving” for a better view.
Bernard Schreiber, 19. was the
last person executed in Ohio for a
crime committed as a juvenile. Con-
victed of raping and killing a 17-year-
old girl near Toledo when he was 17,
he was electrocuted March 15, 1956.
Schreiber and a companion
knocked the girl off her bike before
raping her and stabbing her to death.
Other juveniles executed at the
Ohio penitentiary include:
@Otto Leuth, 16. on Aug. 29.
1890. He was convicted of raping and
killing a 7-year-old neighbor girl in
Cleveland and burying her body un-
der his family’s home, according to
Streib’s book. The girl’s body was °
found a month later.
Leuth was the first juvenile exe-
cuted at the Ohio Penitentiary. His
hanging drew more than 100 people.
a story in The Dispatch said. ;
= Floyd Hewitt, 17, on Jan. 6.
1928. Hewitt. 16 at the time of the
crime, is the youngest person execut-
ed. He died in the electric chair.
e Dispatch files
Drawing of Willie Haas
Hewitt was convicted of killing a
neighbor's wife and her 5-year-old
son after she refused his sexual ad-
vances, according to Streib’s book.
He confessed to striking the woman
with a poker and beating the child
with a baseball bat.

FROM: THE O. P. News, Volume 69, No. 43, Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 1962
TITLE: 0. Henry, the Writer with the Magic Piss peso oy
| : SMITE Tr Co ECG i
COL, eae ee, eee
is %
On April 25, 1898, an alcoholic named William Sidney Porter disappeared
inside a prison, and there emerged in his place three years later a man whose
very name spelled magic in the literary world. Behind the walls, on Spring
Street in Columbus, Ohio, a giant was born during a time when weaker men would
have let the rigors of penal servitude take their toll. The Ohio Penitentiary-
the birthplace of 0. Henry. 2
Things never looked darker for Porter, prison number 30664, as he entered
the front gate of the Ohio Prison sixty-four years &go- He was ready to start
serving a five-year sentence handed out by a federal judge in Texas. The
charge was embezzlement, and the new prisoner was to serve the sentence in the
Onio prison in accordance with @ working agreement between the Buckeye State
and the federal government. Porter entered the high-walled prison when such
nates as John Henry Morgan, Confederate Raider, and Cassie Chadwick, lady
swindler par-excellence, had brought reams of publicity. The new prisoner
could never have dreamed that the recreation field on the prison grounds
would someday be named in his honor.
From a pen that seemed to be dipped in magic flowed thousands of words
that would soon capture the fancy of millions-—page after page, story after
story, from the fertile mind of a convicted felon who somehow put on paper .
the perfect Christmas story. In a cell, alone with his thoughts, Porter let
his pen weavesthe words of the classic, "The Gift of the Magi." This was his
start, and then the pen wrote faster, and the stories poured out from behind
the walls.
No one will ever know the true story of Porter's life in prison. Even
to his closest friends he pretended that it had never happened; he would
never talk about it. Old musty records in the prison jdentification office
say that Porter gave his age as thirty-three when he was admitted and listed
his occupation as bookkeeper. But the records show that he worked at the prison
hospital while serving his sentence. :
What started 0. Henry to write? No one really knows. All that is known
is write he did, and no one knows for sure to this day how he got his manuscripts
out of the prison. ‘The story given the most credence says that he sent the
manuscript to a relative of a fellow prisoner who forwarded them to a publisher.
Porter did not sign his real name to any of his works, Under the title of
his stories was simply the words, "By O. Henry." ;

THE ELECTRIC CHAIR
The first legal electrocution took place,in Onio on April 27, 1897. Since that
time, 315 persons (312 men and 3 women) have been executed in this manner,. with the
ast electrocution taking place on March 15, 1963. Since this date, executions have
been stayed by legal action, when there was a death penalty in the State of Ohio under
which inmates could be sentenced to electrocution.
It is ironic to note that the electric chair was designed and built by an inmate
who was sentenced here under a lesser charge at that time, by the name of Charles
Justice. He was later released on parole; however he was returned to the Columbus
Correctional Facility (the old Ohio Penitentiary) for the crime of Murder Ist Degree
without mercy, and became the 38th person to die in his own invention. The original
chair is the one that sits at the Southem Ohio Correctional Facility today; however it
is frequently checked with such care as to render a malfunction virtually impossible.
Of the many methods of legal execution, electrocution appéars to be the most humar
Death occurs instantaneously, leaving no blemishes or abrasions on the deceased. The
Positive electrode is attached to the top of the head, and the Negative electrode to tl
lower right leg. The entire chair itself is then insulated from all surroundings to
guarantee no™eurrent drainage or short circuits. Between the time the condemned is fi:
seated in the chair, and rendered unconscious by the first charge of electricity, appr
mately only 45 seconds have elapsed. The current however continues to be applied in
three phases as follows:
1,950 Volts. 12 Amps 10 Seconds
500 Volts. O Amps 40 Seconds
1,950 Volts. 12 Amps 10 Seconds
While the current is applied for a total of 60 seconds, death actually takes
place instantly when the current is applied. The balance of the time is to insure
that the heart remains stopped, allowing death to occur.
Eleven men are required at an execution, four of whom actually operate the device
Two officers place the condemned in the chair and apply the straps and electrodes. A
mask is placed over his (her) face and after rechecking that all is in order, a signal
is given to the Superintendent that all is ready. The Superintendent then signals the
two officers in the Control Room to press the buttons, one of which actually makes th¢
electrical connection. Thus, no one knows who was the actual executioner.
This department prefers not to follow a prescribed routine for the condemned man
to follow on the day of his execution. Instead, he or she may elect to spend some til!
in the Chaplain's Office of the Deputy Superintendent's Office. The inmate may sclec
any food he wishes for his last meal and may ask that a close friend share it with h?:
Late that afternoon, he is taken to the Death House. The final preparations, such as
cutting the hair and slitting the trouser leg, are done only minutes before the appo}:
hour. From his cell in the death house to the execution chamber, it is only a few st
