Three people were executed in the United States over the last 24 hours. The governor of Florida, Jeb Bush, presided over his first execution. Fifty-four-year-old Allen Davis was executed this morning by electrocution. Lawyers for the 350-pound man had argued the electric chair lacked the voltage to kill painlessly, especially a man the size of Davis. The old chair was replaced after another prisoner, Pedro Medina, shot up in flames in 1997, but the electrical wiring remains the same. Bush has also signed a death warrant for another prisoner due to be executed tomorrow morning. Earlier today, a man was executed by lethal injection in Oklahoma, and in Texas, another prisoner was executed last night, also by lethal injection.
