Court won't hear inmate's claim of innocence

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court won't hear an Ohio man's arguments that he will be wrongfully executed for fatally shooting three people.

The high court on Tuesday refused to hear Kevin Keith's appeal. Keith is scheduled to be executed in September.

Keith's lawyers wanted justices to review the evidence in the killing of three people in a 1994 shooting in northern Ohio.

They say courts have never heard evidence that could exonerate him. That includes an alternate suspect who boasted he was going to carry out the killings, an enlarged photo of Keith used during a picture lineup and witnesses who say Keith was elsewhere.
