Oklahoma To Resume Lethal Injections After 5-Year Break

Oklahoma has paused executions indefinitely after a drug mix-up. The state is exploring a nitrogen gas method for executions, but it will only be used if lethal injection drugs are unavailable. Governor Kevin Stitt and Attorney General Mike Hunter defend capital punishment, citing it as necessary for severe crimes. New protocols will be implemented to prevent drug errors. Legal challenges to the constitutionality of capital punishment continue, and executions will not resume for at least 150 days.
