Execution Delayed
A man was saved from being executed in the state of Nevada 2 hours after he had consumed his last meal.
The halting comes by the way of the state wanting to wait to hear the Supreme Court ruling regarding the humanity of lethal injection. The complaint put before the Supreme Court by 2 inmates on Death Row in Kentucky claims that lethal injection is inhumane because it often fails to act with consistency, this , they claim, causes the person being executed undue pain.
The man to be executed, William Castillo, was disappointed at the delay, he was clearly ready to die. Now theres a trooper! Not being executed caused him to ask for sedatives to help him calm down, he was looking forward to it apparently. In fact, he declined his appeal.
Apparently there are 10 states delaying executions while waiting on a Supreme Court ruling.
