Death penatly can't be "cruel or unusual", such as sticking them with a dirty needle. Oxymoron I know...

Just another fascinating question with the death penalty. The real question is-- To prove that killing is wrong, why do we kill someone?


Emily Hobhouse
Probably because they're sold in sterile packs????


StoryGirl
Cute question.

I reckon so - there are probably basic 'human rights' when it comes to execution (yes, I know). Bet it's procedured up to the hilt.

technically, it's so diseases dont infest in the corpse, but im not supposed to answer this question, just like "why do kamakazi pilots wear helmets" or "why is a carrot more orange than an orange?"

the answer is simple; it has nothing to do with the person's status, using universal precautions (hand washing, masks, gloves) and aseptic technique (pretty much keeping everything clean) is the responsiblity of every health professional. So it should matter not if you are in a prison, or a clinic in beverly hills, there is just a standard that must me met.

coz if the injection failed and the fella lived he could sue if he got an infection from a dirty needle.

so it is humane.

Because the people who administer the lethal injections are at risk of infection themselves if they don't. The excuted person doesn't to give a monkeys about it.

simple, it creates employment for somebody or company to make sterile needles. We all know that there is money to be made, even in death.
