The State of Alabama plans to execute Joe Nathan James on July 28. Like eight other men before him, the State targeted Mr. James for an execution date because he had not participated in his own execution by choosing his execution method.
In June 2018, the State of Alabama enacted a law that added nitrogen hypoxia as an alternative execution method to lethal injection. The law provided a 30-day window in which people sentenced to death were forced to choose between two different methods . . .
