Outcry as Alabama executes Kenneth Smith with first new method in decades – updates
www.independent.co.uk
Kenneth Eugene Smith put to death using the ‘novel’ method – despite condemnation from the UN and human rights groups

“Kenny just began to gasp for air repeatedly and the execution took about 25 minutes total.”

Pretty compassionate way to kill a person.

Once again, the Law in the south is brutal.

    The obvious outcome is someone trying to fight against being killed in whatever way they can. If you know that you won’t get oxygen, the obvious response is to hold your breath.

    This would work humanely for someone who wants to die, but as a method of execution is is torture like all the rest.
