Two items:
#1.Prisoner Williams is said to have weighed over 400lbs!
#2. Both prisoners took last meals. Jones, the first executed had a very large meal with a full dessert.
My next remarks may not be written for you if you have a sensitive stomach, so you decide if you will keep reading or just stop right here. Either choice is yours and will be respected by me.
Still there? Okay. In my opinion, the last meal should be a very small one, if any meal is offered at all. One would expect a man with an empty stomach to be more likely to quickly succumb to any execution drugs compared to a man with a newly full stomach. N’est ce pas?
Also, as a matter of logic, why would you allow someone to stuff themselves when after the point of death, all this matter may be involuntarily released anyway, as in when someone is hung? One would think the labor unions for prison staff may have raised this issue before.
I don’t understand how you wouldn’t be so nervous that you’d even be able to eat.
Makes sense to me!
Good point
The victims didn’t get a last meal
