USA :This Thursday New Nitogen Gas Execution in Alabama
 
[Alabama is preparing to use a new method
of execution: nitrogen gas.
Kenneth Eugene Smith, who survived
the state's previous attempt to put him
to death by lethal injection in 2022,
is scheduled to be put to death
Thursday by nitrogen hypoxia]


[Kenneth Eugene Smith stabbed
Elizabeth Sennett to death in 1998 as a hitman]

I didn't think they still did execution by gas...

Ammi 22-01-2024 02:37 PM

…so that death penalty all saved the system lots of money, didn’t it…35yrs in prison on death row, concluding in a new method of taking his life…those new methods generally don’t come cheaply…life in the expensive lane…followed by death in the expensive lane…

Even if you do agree with the death sentence, it should be the hubby who ordered the killing in the gas chamber not the hitman? When someone goes on a shooting spree, you don't put the gun in jail.

Not that I'm saying the hitman shouldn't also have gone to jail but the husband is the one who had murderous intent.

Ammi 22-01-2024 02:52 PM

…I didn’t look up the crime I have to say…just the whole US concept of death sentencing…(…for those States who still implement it…)…because effectively a life in prison sentence….and then putting to death after many, many years at a huge cost to the system…it’s so badly thought out….

They are also bringing back firing squad. Nobody can ban the sale of nitrogen gas like they can with the chemicals in a lethal injection

It's just
American legal terms.

Super Murican Yaahaw freedom of me but I do believe in the death penalty but only for people who are like genuine sociopaths and enjoy inflicting pain and torture on people (and animals. Don’t care if the aren’t human, animals do not deserve it)

If someone gets the death sentence for killing just one person, I think that’s super extreme. I’m talking about serial killers and pedophiles.

Also it shouldn’t take decades to do the actual death penalty… why keep them alive for so long.

And yeah obvs it has to be 100% guaranteed that the person did it

…that’s the flaw with the death penalty that some states of the US still implement, though…there are all of the appeals to be exhausted first and each appeals process can take many, many years …so effectively it’s a death sentence after serving a life sentence of 25yrs so of imprisonment…it makes no sense…

arista 22-01-2024 04:09 PM

"so effectively it’s a death sentence after serving a life sentence of 25yrs so of imprisonment…it makes no sense…"

Of course, it makes sense
Lawyers earn Big Cash to halt it.

I agree. It is stupid.

AnnieK 22-01-2024 04:55 PM

It's costs tax payers more to implement the death penalty than keeping prisoners locked up for life. I don't agree with the death penalty in any circumstance. I would rather they be kept in prison knowing they had lost their freedom.

Executions are the American Way


Do Not Kill a person

he will be unconscious within a couple of seconds, so everything that happens to him after that is irrelevant. I am totally against the death penalty, but all this crap about what happens to his body is just propaganda

joeysteele 25-01-2024 06:58 AM

You can still feel pain when unconscious.
Science has stated that.
So it's not seconds of suffering.

It's why unconscious patients in hospital are still given pain relief medication.

I think this is horrible as an execution process.
Plus as with the electric chair, and lethal injection, there have been errors which prolonged suffering.

Things like this are why I will probably always be against the death penalty.
The USA has some really worrying things about it indeed.
For being a so called world leading civilised nation.

Well of course he shouldn't.
Life as to whole life in prison would still for me be the option.
Not that.

I think it's awful, as rusti said grim.

Not what I could support, sorry.

The USA have always liked to talk a big game Joey, but they're really not miles off being like Russia imo.

I mean this is a very barbaric way of killing someone.
