An Alabama inmate who was the second person in the nation to be executed using nitrogen gas appeared to suffer for nearly 10 minutes before he died, according to multiple reports.
Alan Eugene Miller, 59, was executed Thursday evening after he was convicted of killing three men in 1999.
Miller, who was strapped to a gurney with a gas mask covering his face, pulled at his restraints and trembled for about two minutes, at times rocking the gurney, according to reporters who witnessed the execution. For six more minutes, Miller gasped for air before finally becoming still.
It’s the second execution in the U.S. to use nitrogen gas; the first also took place in Alabama.
TVNL Question: Why is it illegal for an ordinary individual to take a life, but it is perfectly legal for the state to do the same thing? Just asking.
