Description
Dr Joel Zivot, an anaesthesiologist and intensive care medicine doctor, tells us about one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding lethal injection: that it is a painless form of execution. He shares a pattern he discovered while reviewing hundreds of autopsies of people executed by lethal injection - a pattern that challenges what we thought we knew about how lethal injection affects the body, and what that means for how we understand executions.
