Discussed
“As the political scientist Austin Serat noted in his book, Gruesome Spectacles, botched executions, and America’s death penalty. Quote, capital punishment was precisely about the right of the state to kill as it pleased.”
Discussed
“As Austin Serat wrote in gruesome spectacles, 80 of the executions gone arry in the next century involved the electric chair with the failures involving, as he wrote, mechanical breakdowns, others resulting in fire, smoke, the smell of burning flesh, and a prolonged period from the start to the completion.”
