Tennessee inmate survives two lethal injections in botched execution
Original: Tennessee inmate still alive after being administered two lethal injections Article URL: https://www. nbcnews.com/news/u
Tennessee prison officials administered two rounds of lethal injection drugs to a death row inmate before the execution was called off, and the man remains alive. The case has intensified scrutiny of lethal injection protocols in the United States, with critics pointing to it as further evidence that the method causes prolonged suffering and that executions are prone to medical and legal failures.
Why now: The rare failure of two lethal injections in a single execution raises fresh questions about the legality and humanity of capital punishment in the US.
