Florida Executions Halted Again
25.07.07
The death penalty has been halted for one man in the state of Florida after a Circuit Judge said the Department of Corrections needed to make changes to its execution protocol and procedures. Circuit Judge, Carven D. Angel of Ocala, declared that he wasn’t convinced that the current method provides a humane, dignified death, “Our objective is to carry out a process that is consistent with evolving notions of the decency of man. It is not going to involve infliction of pain or lingering death.” This comes only 11 days after the Florida governor signed the first death warrant since the botched execution of Angel Diaz in December. It is currently unclear if this decision will affect the first execution of this year, scheduled for November. |
