Virginia governor rejects bill to bring back electric chair
BY BNO NEWS

RICHMOND: -- Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe says he will not sign death penalty legislation that would bring back the electric chair, instead offering amendments that would provide secrecy for companies that are hesitant to supply execution drugs.

The Virginia legislature approved a controversial bill last month that would force condemned inmates to die in the electric chair if the state is unable to obtain all of the the drugs required to carry out an execution by lethal injection.

Speaking at a press conference on Monday, McAuliffe called the electric chair a “terrible form of punishment” and threatened to veto the bill entirely if lawmakers do not agree to amend it, which could in turn mean a permanent end to the death penalty in Virginia.

Very informative program BBC Horizon ...there is a painless form of execution, Nitrogen Asphyxiation , turn on the gas tap and no dramas, death arrives quite painlessly.

If painless is your goal of course, some may want a painful death for those convicted for revenge of course.
