  • Death by Installments by Roger A. Stetter
    Death by Installments By Roger A. Stetter Many years ago, I was shocked to read about the case of a black juvenile offender by the name of Willie Francis who is best known for being the first recipient of a failed execution by electrocution in the United States. He was sentenced to death by the State of Louisiana in 1945 for allegedly murdering Andrew Thomas, a pharmacist in St. Martinville who had once employed him. Since no one had witnessed the crime and the gun allegedly used to kill Thomas was allegedly lost in the mail, the State’s evidence consisted almost entirely of Francis’s confession, taken when he was 15 years old. During his trial, the court-appointed defense attorneys offered no objections, called no witnesses and put up no defense. Two days after the trial began, Francis was convicted of murder and sentenced to death. No appeal was filed. Instead of transporting condemned criminals to a central prison, Louisiana executed its citizens “on the spot,” moving a portable electric chair from town to town on a truck operated out of the state penitentiary at Angola. The electric chair failed to kill Willie Francis, apparently having been set up by a drunken prison guard and an inmate. After the switch was thrown, and the supposedly lethal current entered his body, the condemned boy was heard to scream, “Take it off! Take it off! Let me breathe!” The sheriff then halted the execution and Francis was returned to his prison cell to await further action by the authorities. Eventually, the issue was presented to the U.S.

  • MEDICATION GUIDE Estazolam (Es-TAZE-Oh-Lam)
    MEDICATION GUIDE Estazolam (es-TAZE-oh-lam) Tablets, C-IV What is the most important information I should know about estazolam? • Estazolam is a benzodiazepine medicine. Taking benzodiazepines with opioid medicines, alcohol, or other central nervous system depressants (including street drugs) can cause severe drowsiness, breathing problems (respiratory depression), coma and death. • After taking estazolam, you may get up out of bed while not being fully awake and do an activity that you do not know you are doing. The next morning, you may not remember that you did anything during the night. You have a higher chance for doing these activities if you drink alcohol or take other medicines that make you sleepy with estazolam. Reported activities include: ◦ driving a car ("sleep-driving") ◦ making and eating food ◦ talking on the phone ◦ having sex ◦ sleep-walking Call your healthcare provider right away if you find out that you have done any of the above activities after taking estazolam. • Do not take estazolam unless you are able to stay in bed a full night (7 to 8 hours) before you must be active again. • Do not take more estazolam than prescribed. What is estazolam? • Estazolam is a prescription medicine used short-term to treat certain types of insomnia including difficulty falling asleep, waking up often during the night, or waking up early in the morning. • Estazolam is a federal controlled substance (C-IV) because it can be abused or lead to dependence. Keep estazolam in a safe place to prevent misuse and abuse. Selling or giving away estazolam may harm others, and is against the law.

  • The Emergence of New Psychoactive Substance (NPS) Benzodiazepines
    Issue: Ir Med J; Vol 112; No. 7; P970 The Emergence of New Psychoactive Substance (NPS) Benzodiazepines. A Survey of their Prevalence in Opioid Substitution Patients using LC-MS S. Mc Namara, S. Stokes, J. Nolan HSE National Drug Treatment Centre Abstract Benzodiazepines have a wide range of clinical uses being among the most commonly prescribed medicines globally. The EU Early Warning System on new psychoactive substances (NPS) has over recent years detected new illicit benzodiazepines in Europe’s drug market1. Additional reference standards were obtained and a multi-residue LC- MS method was developed to test for 31 benzodiazepines or metabolites in urine including some new benzodiazepines which have been classified as New Psychoactive Substances (NPS) which comprise a range of substances, including synthetic cannabinoids, opioids, cathinones and benzodiazepines not covered by international drug controls. 200 urine samples from patients attending the HSE National Drug Treatment Centre (NDTC) who are monitored on a regular basis for drug and alcohol use and which tested positive for benzodiazepine class drugs by immunoassay screening were subjected to confirmatory analysis to determine what Benzodiazepine drugs were present and to see if etizolam or other new benzodiazepines are being used in the addiction population currently. Benzodiazepine prescription and use is common in the addiction population. Of significance we found evidence of consumption of an illicit new psychoactive benzodiazepine, Etizolam. Introduction Benzodiazepines are useful in the short-term treatment of anxiety and insomnia, and in managing alcohol withdrawal. 1 According to the EMCDDA report on the misuse of benzodiazepines among high-risk opioid users in Europe1, benzodiazepines, especially when injected, can prolong the intensity and duration of opioid effects.
