TranscriptAlabama suffocated a man to death in a gas chamber tonight after starving him so he wouldn't choke on his own vomit as they did it. And this was deemed perfectly legal by multiple courts in the vaunted American legal system.

That's what happens when you value institutions over people.

Do they just let them go free if they don’t execute them?

No they tried to execute this guy before, it didn’t work so this is their second mistake.
