A convicted murderer in South Carolina named Brad Sigmon does not want to be executed by a poison injection or on the electric chair. He chooses a shooting team. It is the first case in 15 years.
Sigmon will be held in a chair on Friday at 6 pm at 6 pm in the room of death, which is used for all executions in South Carolina, in the Broad River Correctional Institution in Columbia.
A target must be attached above his heart and a hood is pulled over his head. Three shooters who register for the shooting team a few days ago shoot at Sigmon at a distance of 4.6 meters.
No trust in poison injection
Sigmon’s lawyers wanted to postpone his death in advance to receive a more detailed hearing before the court and to receive more information about the medication that South Carolina uses in fatal injections. Sigmon said that the lack of information in this respect forced him to choose the poison injection. The state also has an electric chair, but “did not want to be cooked by electricity in a lively body”.
“Exemplary prisoner”
Sigmon wants to ask the Republican governor Henry McMaster in a final application to convert his death penalty into life imprisonment. His lawyers think that he is an exemplary prisoner who trusts the guards and who works every day to pay for the murders he has committed after “collapsing for a serious mental illness”.
The prisoner once defeated the parents of his ex -friend Death with a baseball bat. Then he also wanted to kill the woman – but she could escape.
