We feel your pain

Well, not really; no more than the killer “felt the pain” of the woman he murdered.

Headline: “Doctor: In botched execution, hurt felt.”

“A doctor who examined the body of an Oklahoma inmate who died during a botched execution told a federal judge Wednesday that he is convinced the man suffered after being declared unconscious.”

Clayton Lockett, the murderer who “hurt” during execution, “was convicted of shooting Stephanie Nieman, 19, with a sawed-off shotgun and watching as two accomplices buried her alive in 1999.”

Now that Mr. Lockett’s “pain” has become known:

“OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Lawyers for 21 death row inmates say Oklahoma's bungled execution in April is evidence they likely will experience pain and suffering from the state's lethal injection protocol.”
