Tennessee’s Execution Protocol: Expert Speaks Out

TADP and Just City are hosting a Lunch and Learn on Friday, November 14, at First Congregational Church, 1000 Cooper St., from Noon-1 p.m. CT.

University of Richmond Law Professor Corinna Barrett Lain will be there to talk about her new book, Secrets of the Killing State: The Untold Story of Lethal Injection and to answer your questions. Lunch is provided so register today!

As you may know, Tennessee currently faces multiple lawsuits about its single-drug lethal injection protocol so the timing of this event couldn’t be better. Professor Lain’s book provides a detailed analysis of lethal injection as a method of execution, which includes findings of reliance on fake science, torturous drugs, lawbreaking, and woefully inept executioners.
