recently-captured Eric Napoletano. Fautenberry himself denied being one, as he believed he didn't fit the criteria, as he murdered for money, not for sexual or personal satisfaction. Fautenberry was held at the Lemon Creek Correctional Center, initially on a $1 million bail, which was increased to $3 million following additional charges. He was indicted for the murders of Diffee, Farmer and Daron, and was first to stand trial in Alaska. In exchange for the other charges being dropped, he pleaded guilty to killing Diffee and was given a 99-year prison term in Alaska. He was then extradited to Ohio, where he was sentenced to death for the murder of Joseph Daron, and sent off to await execution at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility. In September of that year, he was extradited to New Jersey, where he pleaded guilty to murder in the Farmer case, and was given a life sentence. Execution Following his death sentence, as per Ohio law, Fautenberry automatically filed for appeal on several occasions, but every time, he was unsuccessful. By 2008, when Fautenberry had exhausted all of his state and federal appeals, prosecutor Joe Deters formally requested his execution. His bids for parole were also denied, as a result of protest from family members of his victims. On July 14, 2009, he was executed by lethal injection at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility, about two hours after the Supreme Court denied a final request to delay the procedure.
