Human rights groups are voicing their opposition to the inhumane way one prisoner was put to death. Nathan James Jr.’s execution was supposed.
To happen at 6 p.m. on July 28 but apparently didn’t happen until 9 p.m. The 49-year-old was declared dead at 9:27 p.m.
In what human rights activists claim is the longest execution ever, death row convict Nathan James Jr. endured “three hours of pain.”
For the 1994 murder of Faith Hall in Birmingham, Alabama, the man was sentenced to death via lethal injection.
According to reports, the execution was scheduled for July 28 at 6 p.m., but authorities delayed it until 9 p.m., and the prisoner was declared dead at 9:27 p.m.
