USA - South Carolina. House Judiciary Committee approved electric chair and firing squad

April 27, 2021:

(H 3755) Death penalty could soon resume after SC panel OKs electric chair, firing squad as methods.
House Judiciary Committee approved H 3755 that would let prison officials use the electric chair or a firing squad instead. In a 13 to 9 vote, the Committee advanced the legislation April 27 that has already passed in the state Senate. If it passes in the House, Gov. Henry McMaster has vowed to sign it into law. Under current law, death row inmates can choose whether to die by lethal injection or the electric chair. But pharmaceutical manufacturers that make the fatal chemicals have stopped selling them to prisons for fear of lawsuits and bad publicity, meaning inmates who select that method cannot be executed. The lack of lethal drugs has so far delayed the executions of two death row inmates, and a third inmate could have his execution stayed by the courts soon, according to the S.C. Department of Corrections. There are an additional 34 inmates on death row in South Carolina, but they have not exhausted all of their appeals. The measure could come up on the House floor for one final debate as soon as this week.
