lol methheads. what do you expect, really?
Accidentally cause an embolism that blows up the vein and causes a heart attack
(CNN) -- An Oklahoma inmate died Tuesday evening of an apparent heart attack after authorities botched the delivery of drugs and stopped his execution.Another execution scheduled for the same day was postponed.
Convicted murderer Clayton Lockett was sedated and then given the second and third drugs in the protocol, Oklahoma Department of Corrections Director Robert Patton told reporters.
"There was some concern at that time that the drugs were not having the effect, so the doctor observed the line and determined that the line had blown," he said.
When asked what he meant by "blown," Patton said that Lockett's vein had "exploded."
Botched execution in Oklahoma
"I notified the attorney general's office, the governor's office of my intent to stop the execution and requested a stay for 14 days for the second execution scheduled this afternoon," said Patton, referring to the execution of Charles Warner.
Lockett later suffered what appeared to be a heart attack and died, the director said.
Gov. Mary Fallin issued an executive order granting a stay for Warner and ordered an investigation.
Lockett remained unconscious after the drugs were administered and died in the execution chamber at 7:06 p.m., according to her office.
"I have asked the Department of Corrections to conduct a full review of Oklahoma's execution procedures to determine what happened and why during this evening's execution of Clayton Derrell Lockett," Fallin said in a statement. "I have issued an executive order delaying the execution of Charles Frederick Warner for 14 days to allow for that review to be completed."
The cons utionality of lethal injection drugs and drug tails has made headlines since last year, when European manufacturers -- including Denmark-based Lundbeck, which manufactures pentobarbital -- banned U.S. prisons from using their drugs in executions. Thirty-two states were left to find new drug protocols.
Opinion: End secrecy in lethal injections
According to the Oklahoma Department of Corrections, its protocol includes midazolam, which causes unconsciousness, vecuronium bromide, which stops respiration, and potassium chloride, which is meant to stop the heart.
Lockett was convicted in 2000 of a bevy of crimes, including first-degree murder, first-degree rape, kidnapping and robbery in a 1999 home invasion and crime spree that left Stephanie Nieman dead and two people injured.
In 2003, Warner was convicted for the 1997 first-degree rape and murder of his then-girlfriend's 11-month-old daughter, Adrianna Waller.
"Something went horribly awry," Warner's attorney told CNN late Tuesday.
"Oklahoma cannot carry out further executions until there's transparency in this process," said Madeline Cohen.

Murderer/rapist is dead. Sounds like the execution went fine to me tbh
It'd go horribly wrong if they weren't executed.
sucks to be the second guy lol
Can't they just tie them up and stab the out of them?
Or just put a bullet in their head. Quick, painless, and less than a $1.
This, and it was infinitely more painful than just stopping his heart AFTER giving him a nice buzz. 'em.
Never thought of it that way
Whose the chick in your sig from the tv show?Never thought of it that way
Lili Simmons.
She was in True Detective for a bit but is best known for her role in Banshee.
Wow she has that super innocent look where u wanna put it in her butt
Funny you say that...
Still went better than OKC's late-game execution in Game 5.
good riddance
More "inhumane" the better. Especially for the jerkoff with the goty weave on the right.
Honestly,
I wasnt meant for this world. I cant believe we pay millions of tax dollar money to humanely put these animals to sleep. Also if I was one of these guys I would just want a bullet to the head, very fast and painless. I wouldnt want to first be slowly put to sleep and ultimately have forced respiratory failure. Its kinda creepy.
If it were up to me though, I'd feed these PROVEN rapists and killers to ing lions
IMO, the execution should mirror the crime. For example, should have had some inmates come in and gang rape these fools, beat their ass, then have a guard put a bullet their foreheads.
Or we can just tie them up to a computer and force them to read kool aids posts.IMO, the execution should mirror the crime. For example, should have had some inmates come in and gang rape these fools, beat their ass, then have a guard put a bullet their foreheads.
