Preston Maness ☭<a href="https://texasobserver.social/@TexasObserver" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@TexasObserver</a> >This is not to mention what happens when state agencies use the wrong amounts of these drugs, or in some cases, the wrong drugs altogether. Supply chain issues and pharmaceutical companies’ resistance to having their products used off-label in lethal injections have led states to buck regulations in order to get execution drugs. Some states, including Texas, have been caught trying to illegally import the drugs from sketchy sellers.And yet Texas wants to ban <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/THC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#THC</a>. Absolutely farcical.>While the subject of the book is narrow, and often difficult to sit with, the author effectively provides entry points for people who might not normally wade into the death penalty debate. She dives into contract law, supply chains, off-the-books drug deals by state agents, and executions as currency in local politics, among other interesting roads that intersect with lethal injection.Well, you're definitely selling the book well :) Makes me want to read it.>“But the point is not the examples; it’s the patterns,” she writes. Here, she’s talking about state secrecy and obfuscation, but it really could be the thesis of the book. She provides a nearly overwhelming amount of evidence—the footnotes take up more than 70 pages—to back up her claim that lethal injection doesn’t provide the humane death it promises.
