Death from Complications of Execution
Suffering pets are put down humanely every day. Same goes for gramps if you live in Holland or Washington state. So what is it about death with dignity for degenerates?
Capital punishment by lethal injections is botched 7% of the times. It happened again last week in Oklahoma and last January in Ohio.
In 1999 Clayton Derrell Lockett shot Stephanie Neiman twice and then buried her alive in Oklahoma. He was convicted of murder and sentenced to die.
At 6:23 pm April 29, 2014, lest he be stressed out about his own demise, Lockett was given the sedative midazolam . He nodded off ten minutes later. Then a paralytic to stop respiration was administered along with potassium chloride to stop his heart. I’m not sure about the need to paralyze and suffocate the guy. It seems like stopping his heart might accomplish both those goals.
Execution Complications
Anyway, it didn’t work. Lockett started thrashing around and exclaimed “Oh man!”. At that point the proceedings were stopped. But the executioners blew that too. Lockett suffered a heart attack and died 43 minutes after the initial sedation.
Apparently, he succumbed to complications of his own execution.
