So what’s the problem?

Any execution you can't walk away from is a good execution?

Why should murderers die peacefully?
Their victims didn’t...

All that matters is he is dead, cold, and his carcass disposed of. That he trembled as he died is no big deal, no concern. Is it cruel and unusual? Maybe he was trembling in fear. What about his victims, how about a moment of concern for them?

Not right? Sounds like he’s on someone’s payroll.

Reminds me of the joke Groucho Marx told when asked to speak at a funeral.
“It was a tough audience for an old vaudeville actor. And this came to me while I was standing on the stage: It was a story about a man who was condemned to be hanged. And the priest said to him, ‘Have you any last words to say before we spring the trap?’ And the man says, ‘Yes, I don’t think this damn thing is safe.’ “

These unfortunate people who OD on Fentanyl seems to nod off to sleep peacefully.
Why not just OD prisoners the same way?

That we can’t even manage to do this simply, humanely and cleanly without undue burden on the tax payer is truly a sign our culture is pretty far gone. Probably too far gone.

something was not right with the procedure... Robert Melson, 46, was pronounced dead at 10:27 p.m. Sounds to me like the procedure worked just fine.

Nothing says an execution should be stress and pain free, only swift.

Since he didn’t complain about it at the time of his execution, it’s not an issue. The desired end result was achieved.

Why don’t they just euthanize them like a vet does an animal? That seems to work just fine. Why do they keep screwing up - assuming the little POS wasn’t jacked with just a bit so he’d be a little uncomfortable leaving planet Earth. I have no problem with that. I’m sure the people he shot were uncomfortable too, and he didn’t give a damn.

"A lawyer for an Alabama inmate put to death by lethal injection said Friday she is concerned his trembling limbs and labored breathing were an indication something was not right with the procedure."
I think the lawyer should go through the same procedure to determine if he ends up with similar results.
