A swift decapitation was considered to be merciful and painless.

Even if the death penalty is allowed by the government, many people assume it will be undertaken in a merciful and painless manner. Currently, twenty-nine 29 states in the United States provide for and all of them have lethal injection as the preferred form of execution. Statutorily, sixteen 16 states also have alternative execution methods on the books. These alternative execution methods are:. Of course, each of these execution methods has been developed in an attempt to be merciful and bring upon the death of the condemned individual as painlessly as possible. Legislation has been passed to provide for new or alternative execution protocols with mercy as a statutory rationale. However, pain in executions is a reality. And more and more, we are learning how those who are being executed with a lethal injection may be suffering extreme pain in this procedure. For many years, scientists have been warning that lethal injections are far Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments painless. For more, read Motluk, Alison. Medical experts, based upon information discovered during of the executed by lethal injection, describe how drugs like midazolam result in a very painful death. Witnesses to some executions have eyewitness testimony of the condemned appearing to suffer during a lethal injection execution. Which is why in the past year, concerns over pain during a lethal injection have escalated to the point that alternative execution methods are being sought by several states. Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments, Mississippi, and Alabama have passed legislation for asphyxiation using Nitrogen Hypoxia, for instance. Precythe, S. In this case, SCOTUS found that the use of pentobarbital in the lethal injection of a condemned man with a medical condition that might increase his pain during the execution did not violate the Eighth Amendment provision against cruel and unusual punishment. Justices Breyer, Ginsburg, Sotomayor, and Kagan dissented with Sotomayor filing a dissenting opinion. From Bucklew v. Nor do they suggest that traditionally accepted methods of execution are necessarily rendered unconstitutional as soon as an arguably more humane method becomes available. Of course, minimizing pain for the condemned has rarely been a concern for the state; consider the horrific execution methods used in the pastwhich include: Boiling; Burning; Catherine Wheel limbs slowly broken, left to die ; ; Hanging; Head Crushed; Hung, Strung, and Quartered; Impaled on Spear or Pole; and being Sawed in Half. Pain and Execution Protocols in the United States Currently, twenty-nine 29 states in Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments United States provide for Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments punishment and all of them have lethal injection as the preferred form of execution. How Painful is the Lethal Injection Protocol? It May be Horrific. Painful Executions are not Cruel and Unusual Punishment under the Eighth Amendment | Death Penalty

Earlier epochs were big on public shaming utilizing devices that punished the individual by humiliating and degrading said person on a societal level. Added to the offender included being while punished, signifying a lower socio-economic standing. This form of was most popular in England and the American colonies. Later, bilboes would be used in the transportation of slaves across the Atlantic, where the particularly strong slaves would be fastened for the duration of the trip. In most instances, members of the population that are at the lowest of the totem pole find themselves victim to the worst forms of punishment. Women were forced to endure some of the worst forms of corporal punishment including the Cucking and Ducking stools. Another form of public humiliation, records of the use of the Cucking and Ducking stool go back as far as the 13 th century. They were primarily used against women for back-talking, scolding, or simply displaying a temper that men thought inappropriate. A lose, lose scenario if we ever heard one. Similar to the cucking and ducking stool, the bridle was used against English women who were perceived to Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments rude, nags, or who spread untruths. It was an iron cage, often of great weight; the bridle covered the entire head with a spiked plate or flat tongue of iron to be placed in the mouth to keep offender from speaking or feel a sharp pain. In order to fully achieve a level of public humiliationthe women would either be lead around town or attached to a post. Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments humiliation was certainly a Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments of the earlier epochs — the was a wooden or metal framework erected on a post, with holes for securing the head and hands. Used from the s to the early s, the pillory was able to humiliate the offender by holding the head in a tight grasp and thus up to the public gaze. Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments of the most heinous examples that combine the two is the breaking of Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments wheel, also known as simply the wheel. Another form of punishment that sees in many cases the victim suffer in agony before death is Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments. One of the most gruesome methods on our list, impaling a traitor or enemy of the state somehow continued until the 20 th century in the Ottoman Empire. The reason impalement should also be viewed as corporal punishment is the survival time for its victims. Accounts hold that victims have lived up to eight days after being impaled; the social impact of such a statement cannot be overstated. Seeing a man live in agony for eight days would certainly keep us from revolting. One of the most ancient forms of corporal punishment is bastinado or foot Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments. Evidence of its use has been seen across many cultures and its reference as a punishment is also described in the Bible. A cane or a crop is used to beat the victim and in many cultures it takes place in a public venue, continuing the theme of public humiliation. Bastinado was used extensively by the Nazi Regime and is continued to be used by oppressive regimes as a form of as it does not leave any physical evidence of a beating. The most common and known form of corporal punishment is floggingalso called whipping or caning. The only difference is the instrument of use with some people using sticks, rods, straps, whips, and many other objects. In severe cases, the backs of the victims were whipped to the point that skin was ripped off the bone. Flogging is also Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments method that was used at schools against children, and while it resembled more of a spanking — the use of a whip or switch left children in tears and has rightfully been outlawed in most civilized countries. Sadly, is a form of corporal punishment that still exists today. As mentioned earlier, under Shariah law, thieves may be punished by having their right hand amputated. The use of mutilation as a punishment was much more common in previous centuries. Like many other examples on our list, the social component was extremely important to the punishment as victims were forced to interact in society after being branded or such. The most unsettling punishment on our list is Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments and quartering, also called dismemberment. In these cases, the victim is tied to four horses that all pull Cruel Crimes and Painful Punishments different directions. Probably the most famous case of its administration ties in all the motifs of our previous punishments. The victim was Tupac Amarua rebel leader in Peru, who led indigenous Peruvians against the colonial Spanish. And although corporal punishments are not used with such high frequency as in previous centuries, the fact that women in parts of the world still are victims to mutilation based on religious laws demonstrates how far we still have to go. This was a criminal act by an individual. Also, under sharia law, amputation carries so many conditions that it is almost impossible to actually give the punishment. In Saudi Arabia, the theif is released or sent to jail 3 times. Only the 4 th time, if he steals again, his hand could be amputed and even this is extremely rare becasue of many restriction. The purpose is only to deter people from crimes. And the Ottomans did not carry out Impalement. Infact the ottoman soldiers were victims of impalement by Vlad of Romania.
