    The state within a nation that permits execution her refuses medical assistance in dying. That would be a cop-out; too soft a punishment.

    They want her to die the way God intended, using a specific cocktail of drugs that knock her out, paralyze her, and then suffocate her in her sleep as a form of revenge. The state assumes this is the appropriate punishment, the words are on the paper; so it is written, so it shall be done.

    The alleged rapists at many Ivy-league universities may be able to provide another source for a cocktail of effective drugs.

    And, I think someone else mentioned that if the execution fails or is not complete on the same day, they need to provide care until the next attempted execution.
