Ok, maybe that isn't the best byline. February has six scheduled "serious dates." At the moment two of those scheduled executions -- at least -- appear headed for serious lethal injection litigation, Vernon Evans and Michael Morales. Evans was denied relief and, if executed, is a likely botch candidate (more on that in a subsequent post). Morales has purportedly been granted discovery on three post-mortems done after past executions. The three remaining of the six cases are from Texas, 'nuf said. [Correction: I have received from a good source that Glenn Benner has not filed and may not be filing a lethal injection challenge after all. Earlier posts were based on a faulty report that in fact there had been a lethal injection filing were based on faulty information. My apologies to those who apparently have been aggrieved by the early posting. Mea culpa. - k]
