“Kenny just began to gasp for air repeatedly and the execution took about 25 minutes total.”

Pretty compassionate way to kill a person.

Once again, the Law in the south is brutal.

    I think the bigger issue is that he was aware of when the nitrogen started, so tried holding his breath for as long as possible.

    If he had the mask on and it was pumping breathable air, and then at some point switched to pure nitrogen without any warning that would be more humane because he wouldn’t know what was happening or when.

      Lol at calling any of that humane. There’s nothing humane about suffocating a man against his will.

        It sounds like your real issue is with the act of executing criminals rather than the method used.

        Which is fine, but it’s a different discussion.
