Here is a quote for the the Wall Street Journal about a Lethal Injection and a NJ Judge... [ QUOTE ]
"The New Jersey Appellate Division on Feb. 20 halted lethal injection executions in the state," the New Jersey Law Journal reports. The method's fatal flaw, according to Judge Sylvia Pressler, is that it is fatal:
Her dramatically worded decision reads at times more like an editorial than a ruling. She said regulations adopted by the state Department of Corrections to govern executions are "arbitrary," "unreasonable" and "tautological," and that the death penalty might only be "conceptually" constitutional.
She said the rules were written without the required medical investigation into whether a lethal injection is "reversible"--if a prisoner won a reprieve after the injection had been given but before the drugs had run their course.
<font color="red">Possibly excepting crucifixion in certain cases, is any method of execution reversible? </font color>
<hr /></blockquote> This woman should be removed from her position. It is obvious she cannot handle it. /ccboard/images/graemlins/smile.gif
