What might be nice is to let the family and immediate relatives of the victim carry out the sentence in any manner they want.  After all, the killer (if it was  a murder) did not give the victim a choice.  If they want to club him, stone him, stab him slowly with knitting needles, clamp his nostrils shut and tape his mouth, nail gun his head with 4 inch nails, whatever.  Strap him down to a chair and let them go to work. They would be given 1 hour in which to complete the task.\n\nIf this type of capital punishment existed it might give a lot of criminals pause before they go out and commit their dastardly deeds.

Euthanasia is illegal in this country.  As far as prisoners having discomfort while receiving a lethal injection......I really don't care.  Sorry, but did they care while they were killing their victim?

That's a broad question - are you talking about who gets the death penalty or who gets life saving medicine, or who gets priority in a disaster? As far as capital punishment, of course. There isn't anyone else to choose. As far as medication or vaccinations, again, of course, however the morality involved needs to be examined. As for a disaster, obviously the people who have the best chance of survival should be treated first.

Execution style usually means they were kneeling, possibly with hands tied behind their back and legs tied, and they were shot in the back of the head.

I'm guessing that you meant rule...\n\nThere wouldn't be a prison overcrowding problem if I was in charge...how many people sit slowly dying waiting for a heart or liver transplant in this country, while we have hundreds of prospective donors sitting on death row waiting to have poison pumped into their body rendering their organs useless? Can anyone explain the logic behind this to me? I would kill two birds with one stone so to speak.

They are usually retained by the use of handcuffs and iron chains...depending on the situation as to why they are being imprisoned. Officers have to be careful as to how they handle the prisoner due to liability.

Nothing happens.  They are kept separate from convicted inmates.  They are fed, and treated in accordance with established policy.

Ask the Jail Wardens, or the Judge that oversees the case.

Depends on who is killed or injured.\n\nPrisons have warders also.
