The Death-penalty Feud At The Supreme Court

Evan Vucci / AP Last week, Governor Mary Fallin of Oklahoma admitted that her state had misled the United States Supreme Court. In a brief statement issued hours before the scheduled execution of Richard Glossip, Fallin said that she was granting him a 37-day stay “due to the Department of Corrections having received potassium acetate as drug number three for the three-drug protocol.” The state last spring assured the Supreme Court that it stood ready to execute Glossip with a three-drug cocktail consisting of “midazolam, followed by vecuronium or recuronium bromide, then potassium chloride” a different drug with different effects.
