Another take: this exposes the right vs left checkmate, meanwhile mass criminals are still on the loose.

Arizona says it has no more drugs left to carry out death penalty executions

The US state of Arizona says it doesn’t have any more lethal drugs left to carry out executions after a lawsuit was filed by seven inmates on death row, who say the state is using harmful drugs that violate a ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

The Arizona Department of Corrections says its supply of midazolam, which is a sedative that has been linked to botched lethal injections, ran out on May 31. State lawyers say they have been unable to find replacements as they filed proceedings at Phoenix’s US District Court.

Why don't they just inject them with heroin with fentanyl. Good enough for the people why not include prisoners? Probably too inexpensive and no profit for the death penalty drug makers.

It's ridiculous that they inject them with these drugs anyways, imo. It's probably a horrible and painful way to go.

The better solution would be to simply asphyxiate them with nitrogen gas or something. You don't gasp for air if there is no carbon dioxide. You just black out.

Why don't they use heroin...they have warehouses full of the stuff. The reason imo is they can control the handling of it. Too much will come up missing and the lethal dose will be so cut and diluted by the time they get to use it, that the death row prisoner might just get a good buzz.

a bottle of N2 hooked to a gas mask could kill many for cheap
