Murderer gets lethal injection in Florida despite 'too big' claims

'Too obese' killer executed in US

A 27-STONE killer has been put to death, despite his attorneys saying he was too obese for execution.

Florida State Prison carried out the death warrant on Michael Tanzi, nearly 25 years after he kidnapped and murdered Janet Acosta.

After his final meal of pork chops, gravy, bacon, ice cream and a chocolate bar, 48-year-old Tanzi was given a three-drug lethal injection.

He abducted Miami Herald production worker Janet, 49, on April 25, 2000, and strangled her.

In the days leading up to his execution, Tanzi's legal team made a final appeal to the US Supreme Court, claiming that his obesity and a related nerve condition, sciatica, would make the lethal injection inhumane.
