Director Robert Patton confirmed in interviews with DPS ....“The previous general counsel (Oakley) and the Attorney General’s Office” chose the drugs, he told investigators.
When supplies of Oklahoma’s usual execution drug ran short, the AG’s office and DOC’s general counsel cobbled together a new drug protocol, the filing shows. They used online research such as “Wiki leaks or whatever it is” and testimony from an expert who testified in Florida whom they did not meet with, Oakley told investigators.
Man... that dude died pretty horribly. YEOWCH.
In 1999, Lockett kidnapped, beat, and shot Stephanie Neiman, a nineteen-year-old high school graduate, friend of Lockett's other victims, and a witness to his crimes. The men beat her and used duct tape to bind her hands and cover her mouth. After she stated she would go to the police, Lockett decided to bury her alive. Lockett ordered an accomplice to bury her while she was still breathing. She died from two wounds from a shotgun fired by Lockett.
YEOWCH.
Some may argue that we don't need the death penalty. i tend to think that solitary confinement for life is worse. It makes people go insane, you see. However, I also believe that some people just deserve to die.
He deserved to die. But, did he deserve to be a test subject for "Whatever might kill him?"
Do you know who did that?

It was horrific to see how much the Japanese could medically torture a human being and how much they can take before they expire, - it's just as horrible for us to do it to our own prisoners. Of course the US didn't prosecute them as long as they got the information on their experiments.
