Kenneth Smith ‘struggled for life’ for 22 minutes in Alabama nitrogen gas execution: Updates - eviltoast

“Kenny just began to gasp for air repeatedly and the execution took about 25 minutes total.”

Pretty compassionate way to kill a person.

Once again, the Law in the south is brutal.

    I’m actually curious whether nitrogen hypoxia would leave the organs viable. However, it’s not a point that should be pushed. Let’s not give the rich any more reasons to want to keep the death penalty.

    Your method could be a bit messy. I’d imagine even the doctors involved in the organ harvesting would be squeamish when confronted by the results. Ironically, nitrogen hypoxia would be my preferred way to go.
