cruel and unusual punishments and then we have the death penalty that it is a cruel way of punishing someone and some people argue that death by lethal injection is a cruel way of dying “The move was a tacit admission that the lethal-injection procedure (which has changed as pharmaceutical companies have ceased production of several lethal drugs) is now so unreliable that shooting a man at close range is the more humane option” ( Marazziti).

All of the methods of execution are grotesque and barbaric. Some of the methods have included hanging, firing squad, electrocution, gas chamber, and lethal injection. All of the methods have fatal flaws, with hanging if the rope is too long it will tear off the head of the prisoner if the rope is too short the prisoner will be strangled to death.
