Florida is sticking to its guns (needles) when it comes to administering lethal injections to inmates deemed fit to die for the crimes they have committed.
After the recent, so called “botched” execution Oklahoma, the Constitutional Project recommends that Florida do away with their “three-drug lethal injection cocktail,” and use a one-injection method.Last year, Florida began using midazolam hydrochloride as the first of the triple-drug lethal injection protocol, instead of the previously used pentobarbital sodium. The drug, the first of three injections, renders the inmate unconscious.
Florida and Oklahoma’s lethal injection protocols are almost identical, but the quantities of the drugs are different, with Florida using 500 milligrams of midazolam while Oklahoma’s protocol calls for 100 milligrams.-Tallahassee Democrat

In addition, the project also recommends that Florida be required to garner “unanimous verdicts in the sentencing phase of death penalty cases.”
While some say that this “botched” execution was inhumane, has anyone stopped to ask if the crimes the dead inmate committed were just as inhumane or not?
