[Kenotthib]

Title sums it up. Explanations anyone?

No it's not.

This is clearly the answer.

Whatever's left in the needle might neutralize the lethal injection and not have any effect! :Q

 

[Cursed Prince]

They'd hate for them to catch a disease

 

[itachifan7]

This is clearly the answer.

[Edo Odin]

Cause you don't want to get an infection and die, Unless by "lethal" you mean a syringe carrying a deadly solution inside that would cause your death.

Good question btw.

Incase there is a stay of execution at the last minute. It's performed with an IV, so obviously there is a large window between the moment when the needle is inserted and the execution where a stay might be delivered.

If the prisoner was saved but still died due to an infection, the prison could have a wrongful death lawsuit against them.

I thought this would be obvious.

After someone is sentenced for the death penalty it takes months or maybe longer for them to actually execute the person convicted. So I highly doubt it.

idk maybe they pant post death resaults to be acurate for any tests that might be performed or the zombie thing stated before

Because they don't sell dirty needles in the medical supply catalog
