Adremy Dennis Case

A teen killer who told the parole board that he regretted letting eyewitnesses survive was executed Wednesday for a shotgun murder during a $15 robbery. Adremy Dennis was put to death by injection at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility. His court appeals were exhausted last week, and Gov. Bob Taft denied clemency.

Dennis was 18 when he and an accomplice tried to rob two men outside an Akron home in 1994. One of the men gave up $15. The other, Kurt Kyle, 29, began searching his pockets, and Dennis shot him to death.

Dennis blamed Kyle for failing to cooperate and notice that he was high on drugs. “I ain’t saying it’s all his fault, but why did he move?” Dennis said from death row. “Every day I think about that. It ain’t ‘Why did you kill that man?’ It’s ‘Why did you move?'” He told the parole board that he would not have left eyewitnesses “if my mind had been right at the time.”

Kyle’s friend who was robbed that night, Martin Eberhart, witnessed the execution. “The punishment fit the crime, and justice has been served,” he said.

Dennis’ accomplice, Leroy Lamar Anderson, was 17 at the time of the crime and Ohio law prohibits the death penalty for those younger than 18. He is serving a life sentence.

At age 28, Dennis was the youngest inmate put to death in Ohio since 1962, and his execution was the 15th since the state resumed using the death penalty in 1999.
