States Kill Three

The first executions in the U.S. since the botched killing in Oklahoma will begin any minute now.  The SCOTUS turned down final appeal from Georgia inmate (it involved secret source of killing chemicals) and he may go first --or that will fall to Missouri prisoner set for death just after midnight.  And then a third in Florida on Wednesday evening.  I will update here.  My ebook on history of capital punishment in U.S., and current debate, here.  UPDATE  Wellons died in Georgia at 11:56 p.m.  Execution went "smoothly." A little later, Winfield me his fate in Missouri.  UPDATE #2  And, tonight, Florida makes it three just now.
