EOB: Correction officials considered firing squad
Bring back the firing squad as a means of execution in Idaho?
That’s something the state Department of Correction actually has been exploring, as states continue to struggle to obtain appropriate drugs for lethal-injection executions.
“We considered asking the Legislature to amend the statute so a firing squad could be used as a means of execution,” confirmed department spokesman Jeff Ray. “Like many states, we are concerned about the future availability of the drugs used for lethal injections.” Betsy Russell, EOB
Bring back the firing squad yay or nay?
