“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.

    Do you try to hold your breath when you get gas at the dentist? It would be aweful.

    You can’t control how some people are going to act.

    Some faint when they see a needle, some vomiting when they are electrocuted. Some soil themselves before a hanging or firing squad.

    I’m not saying I support execution or the method, but it’s obvious that this could have gone much smoother had the prisoner not try to intentionally hold their breath.

    It quite literally should have been very relaxing, quick, and as respectful as you can expect for an execution.
