I don't think the Supreme Court would ever allow strangulation with a telephone cord.

What, and deny the prisoner his/her right to select their own form of execution?

I know it wouldn't work. Too many people who yawned when an infant is raped and strangled would go crazy if the murderer suffered in any way.

Probably some sort of Interstate Commerce clause thing,
or maybe you'd have to pay a tariff or something.

Drag behind the car for 1/2 mile. Run over by a truck. Locked in a a freezer. Yeah, many that the Supremes probably won't allow.

Now that the telephone industry is deregulated, the supreme court should allow strangulation using a telephone cord.
