How do you fuck up an execution? It's really not that hard to kill a person. Just ask her.

    I heard in a podcast that she suffers from a blood disease which could affect the lethal injection. She and her lawyers have repeatedly tried to request that the death penalty be carried out by hanging or firing squad instead, but this was rejected by the judges.

    Wow wtf. So a reasonable judge could've prevented this but they were too focused on sanitizing the image of what they're calling "justice". If they hung or shot her it would look as brutal as it is. But if you make someone "sleep forever" that's not terrible right? Or at least that is their thinking.

    Non medical people making execution drugs because medical professionals took an oath to do no harm

    I mean... Still, it's not hard to put something in someone that would kill them. Pretty sure you can get non medical arsenic or cyanide or something. Honestly, I'm kinda against the death penalty in general, but if it's going to happen, they should fucking do it right. I'd much rather get shot than injected
