A federal court ruled that California's mode of lethal injection carried a risk that “an inmate will suffer pain so extreme” that it should be considered cruel and unusual. This exemplifies that lethal injection is cruel and unusual punishment that causes unnecessary pain.
To begin with, the death penalty shouldn't be allowed under the eighth amendment. For example, CNN reported that all methods are considered cruel and unusual and cause unnecessary pain. The most recent execution was on December 8, 2016, where the execution lasted for 34 minutes. After the lethal injection to Ronald B. Smith, witnesses say that he was coughing and breathing heavily for 13 minutes before finally passing. Overall, the death penalty shouldn't be allowed under the eighth amendment because all methods are causing unnecessary pain.
