www.independent.co.uk
Witness Reverend Jeff Hood told reporters he saw a man ‘struggling for their life’ for 22 minutes as Smith became the first US death row inmate executed by nitrogen asphyxia

“Kenny just began to gasp for air repeatedly and the execution took about 25 minutes total.”

Pretty compassionate way to kill a person.

Once again, the Law in the south is brutal.

    Therefore his death was PAINLESS.

    Except for the 22 minutes of struggling to breath. Unless you’re discounting those by saying he was unconscious the moments before his death. If that’s the case, most forms of what we consider painful death are after at least a few moments of unconsciousness.
