Judge rules Oklahoma’s lethal injection method is constitutional following a legal challenge from dozens of death row prisoners

CNN  

CNN — Oklahoma’s use of a three-drug lethal injection method is constitutional, a federal judge ruled Monday following a lawsuit from nearly 30 people on death row challenging the protocol. The suit, brought on behalf of 28 death row prisoners, named officials with multiple Oklahoma corrections agencies and claimed the state’s lethal injection method violates the Eighth Amendment because it causes “constitutionally impermissible pain and suffering,” according to the ruling. Ultimately, Friot ruled the prisoners’ attorneys fell “well short of clearing the bar set by the Supreme Court” for lethal injection challenges. Oklahoma Attorney General John O’Connor applauded Friot’s decision Monday, saying, “The State has proven that the drugs and method of execution satisfy the United States and Oklahoma constitutions.” “Midazolam, as the State has repeatedly shown, ‘can be relied upon … to render the inmate insensate to pain,’” O’Connor said, adding that he intends to seek execution dates from the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals for inmates awaiting execution.
