COLUMBIA, S.C. — An Alabama man convicted of killing a police officer has been executed in South Carolina, after cutting himself with a razor Friday.
Thomas Treshawn Ivey was put to death by lethal injection and pronounced dead at 6:15 p.m. Friday in the state's death chamber in Columbia. The 34-year-old made no final statement.
Prison officials said Ivey removed a blade from a disposable razor earlier and suffered non-life-threatening wounds when he cut himself on the neck. They strapped him to a chair, until he was strapped down for the lethal injection.

At least that scumbag TRIED to save the STATE the cost of the INJECTIONS..
“Here, let me help you with that!”
Never send a boy to do a man's job.
Hoped they cleaned the wound and put a band aid on it. Don’t want a lawsuit. /s
More likely he was trying to put off the execution, thinking they wouldnt execute a man who was wounded.
That's what I like...swift justice (/s)
