It’s now five days until Thomas Douglas Arthur’s scheduled execution. Will it finally be a fait accompli? Don’t bet the farm. The current main objection to Arthur’s demise is the alleged pain caused by potassium used in the execution IV cocktail.
Does potassium burn the body from the inside out? Since no one comes back from that kind of death, no one can say. Our personal research indicates the drug Versed is a potent tranquilizer and many medical professionals use potassium to commit suicide. Does Arthur deserve more? We personally do not support capital punishment in 99% of the cases, but we also suggest everyone remember that Arthur has killed two individuals and attempted to kill more. His death will not be a loss to society as a whole.
