Tennessee inmate survives two lethal injection attempts
Original: Tennessee inmate still alive after being administered two lethal injections
A Tennessee death row inmate remained alive after being given two doses of lethal injection drugs, prompting officials to halt and reconsider the execution. The rare failed procedure has intensified scrutiny of capital punishment methods and the state's execution protocols, while discussion continues around Tennessee's use of the death penalty.
Why now: The extraordinarily rare failure of a lethal injection to kill an inmate after two attempts is drawing attention to flaws and controversies in US execution methods.
