Legal challenges have claimed that malfunctions can cause tortuously painful death even as the inmate appears sedate. The challenges have keyed on pancuronium bromide, which could mask agony if the sodium pentathol fails to render the inmate unconscious.

Yeah, maybe. Except at 50 times the normal dosage for surgery, the sodium pentathol not only renders him unconscious, it also renders him 100% dead. Then they hit him with two more things that do the same thing. Except that you can only kill this bastard once, and the sodium pentathol will do that all by itself.

That's too bad, in a way. I'd say it would be more appropriate to substitute saline solution instead of the sodium penthol. Then Drano.

I like the way you think. The only problem is that I wish we could have done this about 24 years ago.
