Alabama: In a court motion filed in October, Arthur’s lawyers claim the new drug is likely to cause “severe pain and suffering” during Arthur’s execution. They also claim that secrecy surrounding details of the execution protocol makes it difficult for a court to review. “Even if the court were to uphold the constitutionality of the current version of the protocol based on a review of the merits, there is simply no way of ensuring that this same protocol will be the one actually used to carry out an execution,” Arthur’s lawyers state in the motion. Several portions of that motion were redacted before federal courts made the document available to the public.
