All you have to do to avoid lethal injection is to stop drinking any liquids several days ahead of time, so you are too dehydrated for them to find a vein. IMHO it is time to bring back hanging. It is cheap and effective.

Firing squad, nitrogen atmosphere and bring out Ol’ Sparky.

[BigFreakinToad]

yep. Rope dance works too.

[BigFreakinToad]

call in some folks from Texas, we are pretty good at it.

[ClearCase_guy]

I understand that it’s different — but in countries where they stage false executions (marching some guy out to the wall in front of a firing squad) and them laugh and call it off at the last minute — but possibly repeating the act every few days, that’s considered torture, and inhumane, and against international law.

If the US is using a problematic technique which sometimes fails and they have to “try again some other day”, then they should rethink. Noose or gun. Find something that works.

Have a backup plan. A rope or some lead. Something.

[Osage Orange]

I’d pull the trigger for them.....Would not think twice about it.....

Bath tub, toaster.
Works every time.

Let the victim’s families decide, if they’re still alive.

Firing squad - 100 22-caliber rifles.

This really is stupid. They wouldn’t even need to use a poison gas. Just put him in an enclosed room, fill it full of odorless helium. He wouldn’t even feel short of breath; he would pass out and die within a few minutes.

[Lucky2]

Why not use the same method he used to kill his victim? An eye for an eye is effective.

[KittyKares]

Oh for heaven’s sakes. There are plenty of ways to execute a murderer. Get it over with already.

[NWFree]

They need more practice

[red-dawg]

A .556 to the forehead is a lethal injection.
Jus' sayin.

[DiogenesLamp]

U.S. Medical personnel administering the lethal injection failed to establish an IV line despite trying for roughly an hour.

I find this hard to believe.

“...Creech was allowed to spend time with his wife the night before...”

His wife?????

He’s been in prison for 50 years and he’s married or still married????????????

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

I am telling you, Fentanyl is the cheapest and best guarntee of execution. Just sprinkle it on the desert for his last meal, and game over man.

[PGalt]

Solutions BUMP!

[JBW1949]

In 1973, he married 17-year-old Thomasine Loren White of Boise, Idaho, who allegedly became a participant in at least one of his murders. She was eventually moved to a psychiatric hospital in Salem, Oregon, where she subsequently committed suicide.

Did he marry again while in prison?????????????

[DesertRhino]

As someone else here suggested... dip them in liquid nitrogen and then tap them with a ball peen hammer.
