Alabama pushes to use controversial nitrogen gas method in second execution
Fox News
Alabama is seeking to execute its second inmate on death row, Alan Eugene Miller, with nitrogen gas after the execution of Kenneth Smith on January 25.
An attorney listed for Miller did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
The execution date request comes as the state and advocates continue to present opposing views of what happened during the state's first execution using nitrogen. Kenneth Smith shook and convulsed in seizure-like movements for several minutes on the death chamber gurney as he was put to death Jan. 25.
Marshall maintained that the execution was "textbook" and said the state will seek to carry out more death sentences using nitrogen gas.
