Woman sues US prison over son's 86-minute execution
WASHINGTON (AFP) - The mother of a US man whose 2006 execution took 86 minutes and involved sticking needles into him 19 times has sued the prison team which oversaw the execution for civil rights violations.
On Monday Irma Clark filed suit in the Cincinnati, Ohio, district court, alleging her son Joseph Clark was exposed to "excessive suffering" violating the US constitution when he was put to death on May 2, 2006, at a state prison in Lucasville, Ohio, according to court documents.
The suit claims that two prison administrators and 12 members of the execution team ignored the fact that Clark, who had been sentenced to death for a 1984 murder, had long been an intravenous drug user making it difficult to carry out the execution by lethal injection.

Clark, 47, of West Providence Township, was charged in April 2005 in connection with the disappearance and death of Notestine. She was last seen on April 30, 2000, as she was dragged into a car by a man allegedly fitting Clarkâ??s description.
The only witness to the kidnapping was Notestineâ??s son, Logan, who was 4 years old at the time.
There was no trace of the woman until spring 2004, when her skeletal remains were found by a logger in a remote area of West Providence Township. The site was about five miles from the Monroe Township mobile home Notestine shared with Ronald Grubb and their two children.

Evil does not justify evil. And death is a price too great for anything else.

Then, the members of the execution team should be killed too, because they killed someone, even if this someone was a criminal. And, who executed the members of the execution team should be killed too, and so and so... does anybody would be left in the end?

" 'He deserves death.'
'Deserves it! I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends. ' "

Yes... they have permission, but they still are killing someone, regardless any permissions. The permissions doesnt make a murder become less than a murder. My point is that killing someone is ALWAYS wrong, no matter who is killing or who is killed.
