Quisi Bryan was born in Massachusetts and spent his youth on the East Coast. Still, he started in youth corrections before graduating to adult corrections when he moved into the Midwest. It was in Ohio that many crimes continued, but didn't come to light until he was already behind bars. In 2000, he shot a police officer in the face, ending both their lives.  After receiving his death sentence, it came out that he had been the perpetrator of numerous rapes and assaults. As of this time, his current death sentence has been delayed on multiple occasions. The latest one as a result of not being able to get the medication necessary to safely end a life per DOC protocol.
