Albama (lemy.lol)

Bluesky Post

TranscriptAlabama suffocated a man to death in a gas chamber tonight after starving him so he wouldn't choke on his own vomit as they did it. And this was deemed perfectly legal by multiple courts in the vaunted American legal system.

That's what happens when you value institutions over people.

Also he specifically requested that they used nitrogen over other methods.

He later changed his request to death by firing squad, but I suspect that may have been a delaying tactic rather than an actual preference.
