If there was a botched execution and the prisoner regained consciousness then IMO they should not face a second try. If I were governor I would commute the sentence to life wo parole in such a case.

I know that there are some evil individuals who truly deserve to die, but I could not sanction a second attempt at execution.

There was another botched execution at BIG MAC. A local man committed two murders over in the edge of Oklahoma.

He was sentenced to die, but they completely forgot about him till several months after the execution date had passed. So they sentenced him to Life. His victims got no such reprieve.
