Poll: Should the US suspend lethal injections?

Concern has been raised by a number of incidents in which the injections did not go to plan.

A CONVICTED MURDERER took two hours to die after being given a lethal injection in Arizona.

It is the second incident in recent months where lethal injection went wrong – another inmate suffered an excruciating attempted execution in Oklahoma.

An investigation is underway into yesterday’s incident, as well as a review of Arizona’s execution process.

Today, we’re asking: Should the US suspend lethal injections?
