    Join us this week as Lindsay lays our the grisly details on what can happen when a death penalty execution goes wrong. This part she is going to go over the more archaic forms of executions like beheading, hanging, and dismemberment. The second part will not be a consecutive episode but one that we will release in the future.

    Botched executions refer to instances where the process of carrying out a death penalty is flawed, leading to prolonged suffering, physical complications, or failure to follow protocols. These incidents can occur across various methods of execution, including lethal injection, electrocution, gas chambers, firing squads, and hanging. Common causes include improper drug administration, equipment malfunction, or human error. Lethal injection, the most commonly used method in the U.S., has faced significant scrutiny for its risk of painful complications due to drug shortages and improper training. Botched executions have sparked ethical debates, raising concerns about the cruelty and reliability of capital punishment, and have fueled broader calls for reform or abolition of the death penalty in many regions.
