This has to be one of the craziest legal arguments I have heard.
Richard Cooey, a death row inmate, is trying to argue that he is too fat to be executed. His lawyers are stating that his veins are hard to find, and that a medication he is currently taking for headaches may have created a resistance to the anesthesia administered during lethal injection.
In a statement, Cooey’s lawyer said, “All of the experts agree if the first drug doesn't work, the execution is going to be excruciating”.
It is worth noting that Cooey is sentenced to die for raping and murdering two women in 1986.
I think it is a fair assumption to believe that Cooey didn’t take his victims and their families pain and suffering into account when he committed these crimes.
But now he wants sympathy.
The Wizard has spoken.
