“The execution began just after 10 a.m. local time at the Arizona State Prison Complex-Florence and it took about 17 minutes for Gunches to die...”
Does it normally take that long for someone to die via lethal injection?
Good question. I know it takes 20 minutes after a hanging to be declared, by way of no heartbeat ... the body wants so very much to live.

I wouldn’t think so : 1st drug sedates, 2nd stops breathing, 3rd stops heart.
probably the total time for the whole evolution
