U.S. District Judge Jeremy Fogel gave prison officials a choice last week: bring in doctors to ensure Morales was properly anesthetized, or skip the usual paralyzing and heart-stopping drugs and execute him with an overdose of a sedative.

This "judge" is twisting the law into a pretzel. This is beyond "activist judges", we are now getting into the area of "1984" where execution means whatever some crackpot judge wants it to mean.

If they were to find a medical professional willing to violate his oath and administer the drugs, I bet the judge would require that the doctor be a seven foot tall left handed midget.
