Marion County Justice (Update)
That's right, Florida. Get ready for another thrilling judicial decision from a Marion County circuit judge. (Here is first post)
OCALA - Attorneys involved in the lethal injection hearings for a Marion County man sentenced to be executed have until 5 p.m. today to give Circuit Judge Carven Angel their last arguments involving Department of Corrections execution protocols.
The deadline for the written, closing arguments marks the end of a months-long look at Florida's execution manual and the newest policies implemented since the December 2006 execution of Angel Diaz.
**********
In December, it took Diaz 34 minutes to die after an atypical second dose of chemicals. (Not long enough, in my opinion.) Then-Gov. Jeb Bush suspended all Florida executions until a full review of execution policies was done.
**********
Angel is scheduled to rule on whether executions are "cruel and unusual" based on the state's execution procedure. His ruling is expected by Sept. 10.
We wait with......antici.....pation.
