The Supreme Court's Evaluation of Death Penalty Statutes
This chapter discusses the evaluation of death penalty statutes by the Supreme Court in 1976, where they found three statutes to be constitutional. It explores the need for clearer guidelines on the constitutionality of the death penalty and the challenges in ensuring fair application, particularly addressing bias in the justice system. The chapter also focuses on the difficulties in sourcing drugs for lethal injection and explores the reasons why drug companies refuse to supply these drugs for executions.
