ReplyDelete1.One of the drugs didn't meet state guidelines. Potassium chloride. Potassium acetate. They got their materials the day of the execution, and now they have to postpone it until November to ensure that the potassium acetate is okay to use by state law.
2.Glossip attorney. They had months to prepare for this situation.
3.He framed Glossip
4.Information about upcoming executions, and about how the procedure is constantly changing. The effect is to make the reader realize how prevalent executions are becoming, and that they need to be more controlled and intact to prevent these situations from happening.
5.I believe so. If drug protocol has not been followed, then they should correct what is wrong. When people don't follow protocol, controversy becomes evident.
6. I don't really have an opinion. On one side, I understand that if someone takes someone else's life, what gives him or her the right to continue life. However, just because someone does something awful to you doesn't mean something awful has to be done back. I have been raised on the grounds of forgiveness because I know how much I've been forgiven in all aspects of my life. I believe they should get to decide if they either want execution or a life sentence.

ReplyDelete1. Governor Fallin postponed Glossip's execution because one of the three drugs used in the execution didn't match state guidelines. The drugs used in executions are midazolam, vecuronium bromide, and potassium chloride. They received potassium acetate in place of potassium chloride. It was a last minute stay because they do not receive the drugs until the day of execution.
2. Dale Baich is an attorney for Glossip. He believes there needs to be more transparency because Oklahoma has had months to prepare for the execution; everything should have been ready but instead, confusion has been caused.
3. Justin Sneed was a hotel handyman who fatally injured Van Treese with a baseball bat after being promised $10,000 from Glossip for doing it. It is this order of murder done by Glossip that gave him the death sentence. Sneed only got a life sentence.
4. The reporter ends the article with information about two executions to take place in October that will not be delayed. The effect on the reader is the belief that something deeper is occurring under the surface to prevent Glossip's execution.
5. Yes, I do believe that his execution should have been stayed for the drug mishap, because they didn't know whether the potassium acetate would have the same effect, and, if it didn't, it could have inflicted harm on Glossip, thus violating the 8th Amendment.
6. I believe that the death penalty is necessary. When someone intentionally harms another human and shows no signs of repentance, then what is to guarantee that the person wouldn't do it again? It is pure craziness for someone to harm other humans. When a person is absolutely crazy and will do anything to harm fellow humans, then that person needs to be eradicated. The execution of that one crazy person could save the lives of many sane people. Besides, prisons are overcrowded causing more people to get away with crime; the execution of severe criminals, who pose a threat to all people, would only free up prisons, allowing more criminals to be put in their rightful place.

ReplyDelete1. According to the article, why did Governor Fallin postpone Glossip's execution? What drugs are involved in the execution? What did the executioners receive? Why was the stay of the execution last-minute?
The governor postponed the execution because the wrong chemicals were sent to the prison l. The execution involved sodium chloride. The ecutioners received sodium acetate. The stay was last minute because Glossip was in his holding cell.
2. Who is Dale Baich? Why does he believe that there needs to be more public transparency in the execution process?
He is Glossip's attourney . He believes there should be more involvement in executions so that mistakes like this don't happen.
3. Who is Justin Sneed?
He is a motel owner serving a life sentence for beating a man to death with a baseball bat on 1997.
Glossip believes that this man framed him.
4. With what information does the reporter end the article? What is the effect of this information on the reader?
The reporter lists what is used in an execution. It let's the reader know how executions are handled and also raises controversy.
5. In your opinion, should Glossip's execution have been stayed for the reasons that it was stayed?
No, not at first glance, but if the were to use the wrong lethal injection, then Glossip's family would probably be able to sue the state. So he just got lucky on this one.
6. What is your overall opinion about the death penalty?
I think the death penalty should not be in place no matter what crime was committed. Prisons should be a place to reform people not have them waste away.
Taryn Dockery
ReplyDeleteThe execution was postponed because one of the lethal injections did not match state guidelines. Potassium chloride is used, but the executioners received potassium acetate. It was last minute because the drugs are not received until the day of the execution. Dale Baich is Glossip’s attorney. He believes it should be more transparent because the state has had months to prepare and they are only just now getting everything together. Justin Sneed is also an inmate. He admitted to beating Van Treese with a baseball bat. The last information the article gives is that there are two more executions, but they have not been postponed yet. This makes the reader wonder why these have not been postponed along with Glossip’s. Yes, it should have been stayed, because the correct drugs must be used, and the court must investigate claims that Glossip has been framed. The death penalty should be used. If someone knowingly, purposefully murders someone, they should pay the price, which is their life. However, there are certain circumstances where the death penalty should not be used, like if the murder can be proved to be self defense.

ReplyDelete1. Governor Fallin postponed Glossip's execution because one of the three drugs used for the lethal injection did not match the state guidelines. The drugs involved in the execution are midazolam, vecuronium bromide, and potassium acetate. The executioners received potassium chloride instead. The stay of the execution was last minute because the Department of Corrections needed time to tell whether potassium chloride can be a substitute for potassium acetate.
2. Dale Baich is the attorney for Glossip and believes that there needs to be more transparency in the execution process because of the fact that most people do not care for these inmates lives, even if they were truly innocent.
3. Justin Sneed is the man who beat Barry Van Treese to death in 1997 after he was "ordered" to do so by Glossip; he is the man who Glossip claims to have framed him.
4. The information that the reporter ends the article with are the upcoming executions of inmates who are seem to be just as bad as Glossip is. The effect of the presented information should be that of unfairness to the reader as those inmates did not receive a delay in their executions, leading to an obvious sign that more transparency will be needed for the execution process.
5. I do believe that Glossip's execution should have been stayed in the way that it was because he would still get the lethal injection sooner or later and the point of the injection is to "execute" so there is really no difference at all.
6. My overall opinion about the death penalty is that of support for the postponement. This is largely because of the fact that Glossip could have really been framed and is actually innocent and needs time to prove it. Another reason is due to the idea that government can become corrupt and rule the law out of subjectivity instead of actually enforcing it, such as the treatment of Glossip in the court and the refusal to grant a stay of execution before the current situation occurred.

ReplyDelete1. Governor Fallin postponed the execution because they received the wrong kind of lethal injection. They received potassium acetate instead of potassium chloride. It was last minute because they receive the lethal injections the day of the execution.
2. Dale Baich is Glossip’s attorney. He thinks that there should be more public transparency because they are needed.
3. Justin Sneed is a fellow inmate who is serving a life sentence and was the key witness against Glossip in two separate trails.
4. The reporter ends the article saying that there are no current delays to the death of Cole and Grant. They did this because they are not letting one mistake hold them back from what they believe is right.
5. I believe that the trail should have been withheld because the mistake gives the court more time for them to review the case and for new evidence to surface.
6. I believe that the death penalty should never have been created. If someone commits a crime they should be forced to leave with what they have done in jail. If we kill someone because they killed another person, than the person who injects the lethal injection should be killed. I think living with what they have done in jail is a harsh enough reality for them. We should not bring along someone’s death. We need to realize that even though they did something wrong that we should not kill them we should keep them in jail for the rest of their life and let them die when they die. It is not our duty, loyalty, or right to kill someone because of their crimes.

ReplyDelete1.because they had the wrong drug. 3 different drugs are involved one being potassium chloride. they received potassium acetate instead. the execution was called off last minute because they receive lethal drugs last minute
2. he is the attorney for glossip. he believes there needs to be more transparency because of the crazy drug mixup
3.a motel handyman who framed glossip for murdering van teresse
4. dates for other executions planned for the near future. this information is there to make the reader realize that the drug mixup was a freak accident and that things will continue on
5.no, because he was framed
6. i believe that the death penalty can be used in very extreme cases, but it is such a slow process it is almost useless. in other instances, an inmate could be framed and be wrongly killed. the justice system as it is right now is too flawed to have any good forms of death penalty punishment.
Michael Ayala
ReplyDelete1. Because they had realized that they got the wrong drug. They were supposed to receive potassium chloride but instead got potassium acetate. Because they were trying to find more potassium chloride.
2. He is an attorney for Glossip. Because they had months to prepare for the execution and had still gotten the wrong drug.
3. A motel handyman who admitted to beating Van Treese with a baseball bat.
4. That the next coming executions will have no errors. That if there has been errors before doesn't that mean that there has been others that have been killed for false convictions.
5. Yes, because he was about to be wronged by possibly being killed or seriously injured.
6. I believe that it is not wrong if you have something criminally insane, but should be at least given a fair one and not be some kind of experiment.
Will Ernest
ReplyDelete1) A mix up of the drugs, Potassium chloride, Potassium acetate, the drugs arrived the same day as the execution.
2) Glossip's attorney, Because hardly anyone knows how the drugs are handled or created.
3) Another life sentence inmate, but may actually be the murderer.
4) That there are no plans to delay more executions, That they may want to extend the delays.
5) Yes, all matter of things can go wrong because of one missed step.
6) The death penalty is for murderer, rapists, and sex offender; but if the crime is so odious that that person did it then skip the trial and get the rope and call a town meeting.

ReplyDelete1.The reason that happened was because one of the three drugs did not match the state guidelines. The drugs involved were potassium chloride, potassium acetate, and midazolam. the wrong drug was potassium chloride. The reason was because the correction institute doesn't get the drugs until the day of the execution.
2. Dale Baich was Glossip's attorney. He said that because the state of Oklahoma had many months to prepare for the drugs.
3. Justin Sneed was the motel handyman who said Glossip would give him $10,000 if he battered the man to death.
4.Dread and curious
5. yes, Glossip's execution should have been stayed because he deserved it after what happened to him.
6.I believe that the death penalty is the right of the government to have and it is their duty to enforce it. If someone steals something, they should pay for it as necessary. If someone steals a man's life, he should give his up also. Let's say for example that a man came into your garage and stole your bicycle. You wouldn't just ignore the fact that he stole your bicycle, he should pay for stealing your bicycle. In the same way, if a man steals another man's life, he should pay for it. We wouldn't just ignore the fact that he just stole a man’s life. He should pay for it accordingly.

ReplyDelete1. Prison officials said one of the drugs they received for the lethal injection did not match state guidelines. Midazolam, vecuronium bromide, and potassium chloride. They received potassium acetate instead of potassium chloride. Because they receive the lethal drugs on the day of the execution.
2. Dale Baich is an attorney for Glossip. Because he received a letter saying the Department of Corrections had already received the potassium chloride and had months to prepare for the execution.
3. Sneed is a hotel handyman who admitted to fatally beating Van Treese with a baseball bat and is in prison for life. He was the state’s key witness against Glossip in two trials.
4. The reporter ends the article with information on what types of drugs are used, the process of the execution, and others who have executions scheduled. The reader may feel informed.
5. Yes, if execution is legal and has laws set in place for it to be mostly painless then those laws should be followed strictly.
6. The death penalty violates the right to life. We as a society should have evolved past execution by now. The death penalty is made to seem less barbaric by the use of new medicines to make it quick and painless, but in reality, it has the same end result as a hanging. People who have committed crimes that result in the death penalty should not be executed, but made to do hard labor for the benefit of others.

ReplyDeleteGovernor Fallin postponed Glossip's execution because there was a drug mix-up the day of his execution. The execution calls for potassium chloride, midazolam, and vecuronium bromide and they received potassium acetate instead of potassium chloride. The stay of the execution was last minute because they receive lethal injection drugs the day of execution. Dale Baich, Glossip's attorney, believes that execution should be more transparent to the public because he knew the department had the drugs a month in advance. Justin Sneed is a motel handyman that used a baseball bat to fatally beat Van Treese. The article ends mentioning that there are two upcoming executions which makes you uneasy believing that they will be postponed. Glossip's execution should have been stayed because he had been in jail since 1997 for the killing of Van Treese, so why claim innocent now? I believe that there should be a death penalty because those who know they are in prison for life are going to crowd the prison if not.

ReplyDeleteGovernor Fallin postponed Glossips execution because they received the wrong drug normally used in executions. The drug normally administered to prisoners on death row is potassium chloride and the drug they received potassium acetate. The delay in the execution was last minute because the drugs are only received on the day of the execution. Dale Baich is Glossips attorney. He believes there needs to be more public transparency because the state of Oklahoma has had months to prepare for this execution. Justin Sneed is a fellow inmate who was sentenced to life in prison for helping Glossip commit the murder. The reporter ends the article telling the reader about the drugs used and how after one execution they upped the dosage by five times. This gives the reader the effect of wondering if the people being executed feel pain. Glossips execution was stayed for the right reasons, if they drug is not approved to be used then it should not be allowed to be used no matter what the reson for execution is. My overall opinion about the death penalty is that it should not be allowed. We as humans do not have the right to take life away from any other human. I believe a life in prison or solitary confinement is just as good as a way to punish these criminals. Although I can see how many people would want these criminals on death row to suffer the same way as they made someone else suffer, I do not believe that the death penalty makes us any different than the people who committed the atrocious crimes that landed them on death row to begin with.
1. Prison officials said one of the three drugs they had received to carry out the lethal injection didn't match state guidelines. Potassium chloride is used but potassium acetate was received. But the same court this week denied Glossip's request for an evidentiary hearing and emergency stay of execution, saying the new evidence simply expanded on his original appeals.
ReplyDelete2. An attorney for Glossip. Because Oklahoma had months to prepare for the execution and this happened.
3. A motel handyman who admitted to fatally beating Van Treese with a baseball bat, but said he did so only after Glossip promised him $10,000.
4. It ends with two more executions scheduled for Oklahoma. This effects the reader by showing how this event does not effect the other executions and tries to make a stir in the reader's opinion.
5. Yes, the drugs received were not the proper ones.
6. I believe the death penalty is pretty totalitarian. By now with all of our technological advancements, we should have non-lethal punishments honestly. The death penalty is also not effective in decreasing the amount of crime in the world. I also believe it is uncivilized.
Chris Perkins
ReplyDelete1. The execution took place in Virginia.
2. He was charged with the murder of a Virginia couple in 1988 and a possible nine other murders.
3. His attorney argued that he was exempt, because of a 66 IQ and a drug used for execution was severely painful, which is against the law.
4. I think if they are the law, then it should followed and fixed.
5. It makes the reader know that it's happened many other times and apparently news doesn't get out that well about this matter.
6. I don't think the death penalty should be used, because it doesn't give them a chance to repent. I also think that it makes them almost as bad as the inmate and they're basically committing murder or forcing an employee or officer to.

ReplyDelete1. one of the three drugs they had received to carry out the lethal injection didn't match state guidelines. Potassium chloride, but the state received potassium acetate instead.
2. Glossip's attorney. Oklahoma has had months to prepare for this execution, and today's events only highlight how more transparency and public oversight in executions is sorely needed
3. The guy that supposedly "framed" Glossip. He says beat Treese with a baseball bat under the control of Glossip.
4. That most executions happen in Oklahoma. This may lead the reader to have sympathy for this man bc he was telling the truth about not doing and they just gave him the death penalty because it is not really a big deal there.
5. no
6. In my opinion I feel as if you should only get the death penalty under certain circumstances. I don't believe a first time murderer or a drug user should be put to death. Yes they should go to jail, but no they should not die. I think that only serial killers and criminals who do very extreme things like that should get the death penalty.
Emily Free
ReplyDelete1) Oklahoma's protocol calls for potassium chloride for the lethal injection, but instead they were sent potassium acetate.
2) He's an attorney for Glossip. He was informed in a letter from the attorney general's office last month that the Department of Corrections had already obtained the potassium chloride and other drugs needed for the execution.
3) He is a hotel handyman who admitted to fatally beating Van Treese with a baseball bat.
4) The reporter ends with information about upcoming executions that are not going to be delayed. This makes me wonder why they aren't being stayed.
5) Yes, following protocol is important.
6) The death penalty is needed, because there are some cruel people in this world.
Ben Hall
ReplyDelete1. Governor Fallin postpones Glossips's execution because the drugs that were meant to be given to him didn't follow state guidelines. The drugs involved that caused this was potassium acetate. The stay of the execution was last-minute because the state had to provide Glossip the correct treatment.
2. Dale Baich is Glossip's attorney. He believes that there needs to be more public transparency in the execution process because it, guarantees that moral values won't be violated.
3. Justin Sneed is another inmate that admitted to framing Glossip.
4. The information given at the end of the article is that "there currently are no plans to delay the executions scheduled for Cole and Grant." This information shows that there is very little chance of a delay in the execution of Cole and Grant.
5. Yes, it should've been stayed.
6. I believe that the death penalty is morally correct under the correct circumstances. For example, if you take someone's life, the state should have the right, to in response, take your life.
April McCool
ReplyDelete1. Because one of the lethal injections didn't match state guidelines. Calls for potassium chloride but the state received potassium acetate. Glossip requested an evidentiary hearing and the new evidence expanded his original appeals.
2. Glossip's Attorney. Because they had months to prepare for his execution but these events happened.
3. Glossip said he was to framed by Sneed, who apparently admitting to beating Van Treese with a baseball bat to death.
4. That they increased the amount of midazolam 5 times on Charles Warner who experienced a burning sensation. That they are maybe not using correct injections or exaggerated amounts of the injections on inmates.
5. His expects hours be stayed due to the wrong drug being given. It should be stayed for a few days if there is new actual convincing evidence that proves he might be innocent.
6. It's confusing sometimes because some inmates are imprisoned for "life" and an amount of time that they will never outlive; so, the death penalty might be irrelevant to them. If the crime is so extreme, then they should receive the death penalty.
Aarons Pugh 2nd
ReplyDelete1. The execution was postponed because they received the wrong drugs. The executioner received potassium acetate instead of potassium chloride. The stay was last minute because they received the drugs the day of the execution.
2. He is an attorney for Glossip. He states that transparency is needed to show Oklahoma is doing their job in an untimely fashoin.
3. He is the guy who allegedly framed Glossip.
4. It ends with two other inmates will die with no delay. It leaves a question of why them and not glossip.
5. Yes because he might not be guilty.
6. I feel it is wrong because that person is not being held accountable. A lifetime in prison will be much more worse.
Brandon Appling
ReplyDelete1.They had the wrong drugs.
2.Glossip's attorney. For the public to see the flawed system.
3.The man who Glossip believes framed him.
4.The death penalty continues to be used even with questionable methods.
5. Yes, they had the wrong drugs.
6. The death penalty is acceptable. The death penalty has been around since the beginning of time and has constantly evolved, today the death penalty is done in an even more morally acceptable manner and should stay.
1. He postponed the execution after one of the three drugs they received for the execution did not math state guidelines. They use potassium chloride, midazolam, and vecuronium bromide for the execution. They received potassium acetate. The stay of execution was last minute because they receive the drugs the day of the execution.
ReplyDelete2. Dale Baich is Glossip’s attorney. He believes there needs to be more transparency because Oklahoma had months to prepare for the execution and receive the right drugs.
3. Justin Sneed is a motel handyman who admitted to beating Van Treese after being promised money from Glossip.
4. The reporter ended the article by listening other so are set to be executed later this month. It leaves an alarming effect because what if something like this happens again? What if new evidence is found proving that they are innocent?
5. I believe that yes it should be stayed. By law, Oklahoma has protocols that they follow when it comes to the executions and they should have to abide by them.
6. Part of my opinion keys from religion. As a Christian, I believe that no one is allowed to take anyone out of this world except for God. There for that part of me believes that the death penalty is wrong. But, my worldly side see the positive reasons of it. You’re taking someone out of this world that has committed a serious enough crime and eliminate the chances of something like that from happening again by this person.
Nate Sanford
ReplyDelete1) She postponed Glossip's execution because the state received the wrong drug for one of the three drugs used to carry out executions in the state of Oklahoma.
2) Baich is Glossip's attorney. He believes that because in September he received a letter stating that the potassium chloride, and the other drugs needed for the execution had already been obtained by the Department of Corrections; however, the correct drugs were not sent to the state.
3) He is the man who actually murdered Van Treese (the murder that Glossip is on death row for). He claims that he only brutally murdered Van Treese because Glossip promised him 10,000 dollars for committing the crime.
4) The reporter end the article with the information of two other inmates on death row, and the information of their crimes. This information leaves the reader with disgust and no sympathy for the two men.
5) Yes, I do believe his execution should have been stayed for the reasons that it has been stayed.
6) I believe that anyone who kills another human being should be given the death penalty, but he or she should be executed in the same way that he or she committed his or her murder(s). If he or she attempted to murder another person and failed, then he or she should be executed in the same way that he or she attempted to murder the person(s).
Abby Ingle
ReplyDelete1. it was postponed because one of the drugs to be used in the lethal injection did not match state guidelines; potassium chloride is one of the drugs used, and instead of this they received potassium acetate.
2. Dale Baich is an attorney who claims that the department already had potassium chloride
3. Justin Sneed supposedly framed Glossip, and later testified against him in court.
4.it ends by mentioning there are two more executions scheduled, and implies to the reader that executions are common.
5. There was no point in stalling the execution. The reason it was stayed was because the state had the wrong drug. He's being killed, does it really matter which drug is used to do it?
6. I think that executions can be viewed as both bad and good. Just because someone is a murderer doesn't mean they should also be murdered. However, they can have positive effects, such as controlling prison populations, and closure for the victims' families.
Rett Saele
ReplyDelete1. one of the drugs used didnt match state guidelines, potassium chloride and potassium acetate, potassium acetate, they didn't get the drugs until the day of the execution.
2. Glossips attorney, bc Oklahoma has had months to prep for the execution.
3. man that Glossip says framed him.
4. two more executions planned in Oklahoma. It makes you loose your sympathy for Glossip
5. Yes it should.
6. It's necessary. There are some evil people out there. I would much rather have them killed than sitting in a comfy prison on my tax payers dollars.
Sloan-
ReplyDelete1. They did not have the correct drugs for state guidelines. Potassium chloride.
2. Attorney for Glossip. So that executions will be more organized.
3. A man who Glossip had long time claimed he was framed by.
4. Information on two other later killings. To stress the damage some of these killers have done.
5. No because there are many cases in which there is a percentage of uncertainty and the court system cant just investigate cases for more time after it has been investiagted and reviewed multiple times.
6. The death penalty should be taken very serious because it is dealing with another human being's life, a human who had a childhood, feelings, and memories like all of us. we should have compassion for these people, but many people correlate compassion with letting the individual keep their life.While this may be the best thing for the individual it may not be due to the corrupt prison system we have( a system that makes the prison inmates even worse then they were before they went in). I believe that if a man or woman has committed a crime such as murdering an innocent child or an old couple in a gruesome way, or the taking advantage of multiple women through rape, it is not in their best interest to be alive. When dealing with the death penalty, we have a responsibilty to find a just solution, whether that is the aiding of an individuals mental state or the ending of their life, it must be the right solution due to this individual having a life.

ReplyDelete-One of the three drugs needed did not reach guidelines. Potassium Chloride. Potassium Acetate. because there had been new evidence found for the case.
- Glossip's Attorney. Because they had weeks to prepare the execution but got the wrong drug at the last minute.
- Who Glossip has been saying has framed him for the murder.
- The executions for Benjamin Cole and John Grant will continue as scheduled. It makes the reader feel sad that they have to go as scheduled when Glossip gets an extra few weeks because of a lucky break.
- Yes, because if I was sentencing someone for execution I would hope it is for a just reason.
- The death sentence should be taken out of most murder trials, because if the person being executed is innocent and enough evidence is found after the execution process, then there is no changing what they have done to an innocent person. The only reason it should be allowed is if it is mass murder. If it is not a mass murder, then they should still be sentenced to life in prison.

ReplyDelete1) they had the wrong drug to administrate in him ;midazolam ,vecuronium bromide,potassium chloride;potassium acetate ; because they get the drugs the day of the execution.
2)an attorney for Glossip; because if the drug wasent noticed and they injected him and he felt large amounts of pain , the state could be tried on violation of the 8th amendment(prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment) .
3)person who framed glossip.
4)2 upcoming executions will not be pushed back due to this issue; the execution process needs to more carefully examined and not rushed because this issue could happen again.
5)no; I think once they received the correct drug then they should have continued the execution as planed .
6)those who kill should be killed unless they aren't mentally or emotionally stable. (eye for an eye)

1)The execution was postponed because the prison did not receive the correct drug. The drugs used for an execution is potassium chloride. The prison received potassium acetate instead. Other drugs used are midazolam and vecuronium bromide. When the wrong drug was sent to Governor issued a stay "out of due diligence." he reviewed to see if it is appropriate to be used.
2) Dale Baich is Gossips attorney. Transparency is needed because the public needs to know what takes place. They need to be allowed to review and comment.
3) The man that Gossip claims framed him.
4) The author reviewed that Gossip continued to claim his innocence. He also sites information on an execution that had problems and resulted in an increase of drugs given. Information of other upcoming executions were given. I think the information leads the reader to question personal feelings concerning executions.
5) Yes, because the prison had to follow guidelines in place.
6) I am not comfortable agreeing with the death penalty. I do no feel we have the right to take a life.

ReplyDeleteGovernor Franklin postponed Glossip's execution because one of the fatal drugs were not right with state guidelines. The drugs involved in the execution are; potassium chloride, midazolam, and vecuroniom bromide. The executions got potassium acetate instead of potassium chloride. The stay of the execution was last minute because they received the lethal drugs on the day of the execution. Dale Balch is Glossip's attorney, he believes there should be more public transparency in the execution process because they had months to prepare for this execution and it did not work out. Justin Sneed is the man who beat Van Treese with a bat to death. Sneed said Glossip paid him to do it, while Glossip says Sneed is framing him. The reporter at he end of the article writes about the information about Oklahoma's protocol towards execution and more executions to come. The effect of this information on people is that execution is painless, still happens multiple times, and involves bad drugs. Yes, Glossip's execution was stayed for the right reason because if he is going to die it should be with the right drugs. I do not think the death penalty is right because it is letting a person off easy instead of spending time in jail. Also, if a person is not going to harm anyone else because they are in jail, an execution is pointless. It just leads to more death and more murder.
1. Governor Fallin postponed the execution because prison officials stated that they received the wrong drug for lethal injection. The prison was supposed to receive Potassium Chloride, Midazolam and vecuronium bromide for the lethal injection, but instead received potassium acetate. The execution was postponed last second due to the prison only receiving the drugs the day of the execution.
ReplyDelete2. Dale Baich is an attorney for Glossip. Baich makes the point that Oklahoma has had months to prepare for the execution and that they already have the potassium chloride to work the execution but that they are delaying it further anyways.
3. Justin Sneed is a motel handyman who Glossip claims framed him for the muder of a resident in 1997. Sneed admitted to the murdering and but claimed that he only did it because Glossip promised him $10,000 to do it.
4. The author ends the article talking about midazolam, and its possible ineffectiveness of it during the lethal injection process. It also talks about the execution of two other Oklahoma inmates and how their execution dates wont be delayed. This leaves the thought of how the process Oklahoma is using for their executions is possibly unjust and why they aren't taking more initiative in making the process more comfortable.
5. Yes, I do agree that it was stayed for the right reasons. The state should not be allowed to administer a drug to Glossip that is not allowed by state protocol. If the drug did not have the right chemical properties it could make the execution process painful and long unlike how the lethal injection is supposed to be,
6. I personally do not agree with the death penalty. The majority of inmates on death row are there because of murder. Is it really fair punishing murder with murder? Does that not make us just as bad as the person we are executing? They are essentially the same act. Murder is murder no matter how you look at it. I believe a better punishment for Killers and members of death row would be a life sentence without the chance for parole while being contained in solitary confinement. Murdering someone who has murdered someone else or many other people is, in a way, an easy way out for them. I believe most members on death row would prefer to be executed in peace rather than live out the remainder of their lives in a prison cell. I think the death penalty is an unjust law and that it should be abolished.

ReplyDelete1. One of the three drugs they received for the lethal injection didn't match state guidelines. Potassium chloride,vecuronium bromide, and midazolam. Potassium acetate. The court had new evidence that expanded their appeal.
2. Attorney for Glossip. He says the execution process needs more transparency because of the whole mix-up and Glossip not knowing a thing about it. Also because his execution date had been moved twice just recently.
3. Justin Sneed is a motel handyman who admitted to fatally beating Van Treese with a baseball bat after Glossip promised him $10,000. He is serving life in prison.
4. The reporter ends with information on the two upcoming executions. This makes the reader think about what Glossip was accused of versus what the other two actually did.
5. Yes, because the drugs that were sent might not be a good alternative.
6. I don't agree with it. I don't think they should die. Someone who is serving life in prison is already suffering the consequences of the crime they have committed. I know they've done bad things, but I think the death penalty is harsh.

ReplyDelete1. The drugs that were supposed to be used in the injection did not meet state guidelines. Potassium acetate and Potassium chloride was used, he received 37 more days to live. Its last minute because the drugs come in on the execution day.
2. Dale Baich is an attorney for Glossip and he believes this because he wants the public to know more.
3. Justin Sneed is the man who supposedly framed Glossip.
4. It ends the the talking about 2 more deaths that are going to happen soon. Its supposed to make you question why is it different for them? and make you wonder about what the difference is.
5. Yes, it should have been stayed because they could have found more evidence and could have figured out that he was innocent.
6. I sometimes agree with the death penalty of the crime is very high. But, if the crime is small and not to violent then I think the person should have a long term sentence in prison and have to go to programs and deal with it for a long time.
Hunter Kamplain
ReplyDelete1. The drugs that they received were wrong and didn't meet state guidelines. They used Potassium acetate and potassium chloride and he ended up getting 37 extra days. Since the drugs come in on the day of, it is last minute.
2. He is the attorney for Glossip and to show how Oklahoma is doing their job in a timely fashion.
3. He is the guy who framed Glossip.
4. That 2 other men will be executed with no delay and it makes the people question why Glossip and not them.
5. Yes, because he could have been innocent.
6. I think it is wrong because it doesn't make the men stay in prison for life and have to think about it. It kind of lets them off the hook by just killing them instead of making them feel guilty.
Hannah Glasscock
ReplyDelete1. Governor Fallin did this bc Oklahoma received the incorrect drug for one of the three drugs needed to execute Glossip. The three drugs involved are vecuronium bromide, midazolam, and potassium chloride. Oklahoma received potassium acetate. The stay was last minute bc Oklahoma received the drugs on the execution date.
2. He is Glossip's attorney. He believes that their needs to be more public transparency in the execution process bc he had been notified that the three correct drugs had already been sent to the Department of Corrections in September; the drugs sent to the state were the wrong drugs, though.
3. Justin Sneed is the actual murderer of the man that Glossip went to trial for and is being charged of murder for. This is bc Sneed claimed that Glossip told him that he would pay him 10,000 dollars if he killed Treese, the victim of the situation.
4. The reporter informs the reader of the two more men on death row in Oklahoma. He or she also informs the reader of the reasons why those two men are on death row. The reader could possibly feel that the men deserve to ie for their actions, and the reader would probably be left with no affinities of the two men.
5. yes
6. I believe that the death penalty should be allowed to take place when you have a situation that is bad enough for this type of punishment. If it is something minor then the death penalty should not take place. It all depends on how bad the crime and situation is.

ReplyDelete1. One of the drugs that was to be used for the lethal injection didn't match state guidelines.
In Oklahoma potassium chloride is used, but the executioners received potassium acetate. The stay was last-minute because the drugs for executions are not received until the day of the execution.
2. An attorney for Glossip
Because there has been a lot of confusion as to what is actually going on, even for Glossip's side.
3. The motel handyman who was convicted for killing Van Treese, and who possibly framed Glossip for ordering the murder in 1997.
4. The author lists information about the upcoming executions in Oklahoma, making the reader wonder if there will be anymore situations like Glossip's.
5. Glossip's execution should have been stayed so that the court in Oklahoma could make sure that the potassium chloride was an acceptable substitute for potassium acetate.
6. The death penalty is important because it gives people who commit severe crimes legitimate punishments.

Dale blaich is Glossip's attorney. He believes that there should be more transparency in the execution process so that people can see the problems and fix them. Justin Sneed is the murderer who claims that Glossip bribed him to do it. The article ends with telling the reader who the next people to be executed in Oklahoma will be executed. This information shows the reader that it is urgent to fix the execution process before more executions are botched. Glossip's execution was stayed for a good reason. The state would not have been violating guidelines and possibly the constitution if the drug resulted in cruel punishment through a painful botched execution. I believe that the death penalty should only be used in cases of murder where there is indisputable physical evidence and the killer does not appear to have changed his or her ways.

ReplyDelete1. the wrong drug was received.potassium chloride. potassium acetate.the drugs were received on the day of the execution

ReplyDelete1)the lethal injection drug didn't match state guidelines, potassium chloride,potassium acetate, they received on the day of the execution.
2)Glossip's attorney, they would have been better prepared
3)Glossip's inmate that framed him
4)The other executions taking place in Oklahoma, it leaves the reader with a feeling that it can happen again
5)It should have been stayed for not being prepared after months
6)my opinion of the death penalty is that it should be here because their are a lot of crazy people out there and don't deserve to live but it can be also use to kill innocent people who were just in the wrong place at the wrong time and that should never happen so it kinda is a mix signal
Talia Gordon
ReplyDelete1. He postponed it because the drugs in the lethal injection didn't match state guidelines. The drugs involved are potassium chloride. The received potassium acetate. Because they don't receive the drug until the morning of the execution.
2. Dale Baigh the attorney for Glossip. Because the state of Oklahoma had many months to prepare for the execution.
3. He was a motel handyman who was said the have framed Glossip for the murder of Barry Van Trees.
4. That they are not delaying the executions of Benjamin Cole and John Grant. To show that one mistake in the use of the drugs will not stop them from giving the injection.
5. Yes, because the should have clear evidence that he did it not just a spoken statement.
6. I do not agree with it. The prisoners should be allowed to live with the guilt that they have taken a life and wasted theirs.
Cole Frederick
ReplyDelete1. Because prison officials said one of the 3 drugs they had received to carry out lethal injection didn't match state guidelines. Potassium chloride. Potassium acetate, because they didn't receive it until last minute.
2.An attorney for Glossip. He said that they had plenty of time to be given the correct drug for lethal injection.
3. Another inmate that framed Glossip for $10,000.
4. The execution of two other inmates in the following days. It sets a gloomy and sad mood in reference to the victims of lethal injection.
5. Yes, I believe if Glossip was sentenced to the death penalty, he should receive the correct drug for the death penalty.
6. The worst penalty a man can get is the death penalty. I believe there are certain crimes that are worthy of the death penalty and would feel no remorse if they were killed because of certain crimes, like abusive rape or serial killer.
1. Because the wrong drug was brought in, potassium chloride, potassium acetate, because they legally could not perform the execution and they receive the drugs the day of the execution.
ReplyDelete2. An attorney for Glossip.
3.The inmate Glossip claims was framing him.
4.There are no delays for Cole and Grant's execution which makes the reader feel disheartened.
5. I believe the death penalty should be reserved for only extreme criminals, nothing less.

4. She ends the article with information about previous executions that have occurred, as well as upcoming ones. It causes the reader to become more aware of the types of executions that occur and as to why they are happening.
5. Yes, because they should only use they drugs that they are allowed to use.
6. I believe that the death penalty is cruel and unnecessary. Sure these criminals did something wrong, but that doesn’t mean that people from the Department of Corrections should be able to determine when and how these people die, especially in these cruel ways. It shouldn’t be their place to decide. Also, if they really want to make them suffer, they should just leave them in a cell for the rest of their lives because there is nothing that is as punishing as that state of loneliness.
