(Reuters) – An ex-priest convicted of murdering a nun died behind bars on Friday, a day after a federal judge rejected his plea for compassionate release for his final days, a spokesman for Ohio’s governor said.
Retired Roman Catholic priest Gerald Robinson, 76, who was serving a life sentence for the 1980 stabbing, died early on Friday, the spokesman for Governor John Kasich said in an email.
Robinson, who had suffered a heart attack in May and was not expected to live more than two months, had asked to be released from a prison hospice into the care of his brother and sister-in-law for his last days.
