The story of Scott Dozier deserves more light. He murdered two criminals he worked with, and has been on death row for 10 years. He asked Nevada to “get on with it” in a very clear and lucid way. He was scheduled to be the first death row inmate to be executed using Fentanyl until the drug makers decided it would be bad marketing for their product. Interesting case study on death row delays and the politics around it. Vice also has great interviews around this case. https://news.vice.com/en_us/article/a3mm5g/im-not-a-suicidal-person-death-row-inmate-scott-dozier-spoke-to-vice-news-weeks-before-his-apparent-suicide https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8142646/death-row-inmate-scott-dozier-prison-final-message-suicide/

More prisoners should man up and do the same thing.

The makers of Fentanyl are worried about bad marketing?

Since when do death row inmates get to demand shit.
Alenelvans
If we’re to have a death penalty at all then the wait should be AT LEAST that long. To give every chance to spare innocents

He was the cause of his own pitfalls. he instructed his lawyers to fight on his behalf to ensure his death method was as humane as possible.
Sehva
Yea, how dare he wanting to die in a humane way
MaternityTester
Lawyers do what lawyers do which is tie up the courts with stays of execution while they tried to discredit all methods of execution.

Nearly a quarter of inmates on death row in the U.S. die of natural causes while awaiting execution.

the death penalty should not exist, but a right to die should.

The makers of Fentanyl are concerned about "bad press" for using it as an execution drug? Like it isn't at the center of the opiod crisis.

This guy gets it.

Originally Edison’s electric chair used the competing Westinghouse’s direct current for an electric chair. Called it being Westinghoused
MattHolmberg
But ya. How much worse can their press get?

I thought the same. Maybe it would stop some junkies if it were marketed as an execution drug. Might curb curiosity in some.

"Dozier sawed Miller's body into multiple pieces, stuffed most of them into a suitcase, and disposed of it near an apartment complex"

Miller was a drug dealer he worked with. But yes. Brutal and deserved to die. Even he knew it. And said it. Even Nevada said it. No action.

I don't think the government should kill people, even in cases like this. Just my opinion.
Brandy321
I often think the death penalty is a bad thing. For individuals like this, i am completely for it.
