Kenneth Smith, 58, is facing execution by an untested method that has never before been used in capital punishment in the US. It’s a technique that has been rejected on ethical grounds by veterinarians for the euthanasia of most animals other than pigs: death by nitrogen gas.

Pretty shure they wouldn't supply the US government for executions either...

I mean, the CIA is literally part of the US government and they are a big participant in South American drug cartels. Surely they could organize something.

But they aren't buying it for executions or officially...

If some prison just takes out a liter of diamorphine from "unknown" source there will be questions... And not just from inside the USA...
