way to the end was much more scary to an onlooker as well as unpleasant for the inmate. The IV execution is meant to put the inmate to death in a less painful and violent way. This in theory is a nicer way to death but it is extremely costly and the drugs used most be imported from Europe.

have been persecuted for twelve years for something I did not do. From God 's dust I came and to dust I will return, so the Earth shall become my throne.

Romell Broom’s execution was terminated after attempts to find a useable vein for more than two…

Modern day demonstrations of the death penalty have been over-saturated more and more over the years effectively desensitizing the general public to the completion of such an act, the deliberate taking of another human being’s life, to be…

The death penalty has been a flawed American institution since it was established in the 1600s. It has been marred by complaints of pain, cruelty, inconsistency, discrimination, wrongful death, botched executions, executions of juveniles, mentally disable, and mentally ill, as well as the financial cost.

The death penalty also known as capital punishment is death by execution ordered to someone lawfully imprisoned for a capital crime. Capital punishment is an issue that has been argued in the United States for years. Many are opposed to it, yet the majority is for it. Nearly 1,400 prisoners have been executed between the years 1976 and the end of 2014 (Rizzo). Currently, there are thirty one states in the United States where the death penalty is legal and nineteen states where it is banned.…
