Well, in lieu of the last requested meal data, how 'bout the actual ingredients for a good ol' down home Texas Execution?!?

Here be the recipe:

Sodium Thiopental (lethal dose - sedates person)

Pancuronium Bromide (muscle relaxant-collapses diaphragm and lungs)

Potassium Chloride (stops heart beat)

The offender is usually pronounced dead approximately 7 minutes after the lethal injection begins.

Cost per execution for drugs used : $86.08

I would say in the future, just skip the sedation chemicals.

Did their VICTIMS get sedated before their final minutes on earth??
