[QUOTE="samsamsam, post: 304972, member: 4381"] It appears there is a shortage of drugs needed to make the lethal injection cocktail. Since it will take a while before the appeals are resolved maybe this won't be an issue down the road. States have been dealing with this issue and I believe Utah installed the firing squad as its death penalty and another state is working on a gas option. A few months ago there was some news, I believe Texas, where the execution didn't go so well and it took much longer than it should have.
