Another inmate on death row in South Carolina has chosen to be executed by firing squad, according to reports from the San Antonio Express-News. This decision comes after a recent execution where another inmate was killed by bullets earlier this month.
This marks the second time in recent weeks that a death row inmate has opted for the firing squad in the state. South Carolina is one of four states that still offers this method of execution, along with lethal injection, electrocution, and gas chamber.
The inmate’s decision comes amid ongoing controversy surrounding the death penalty and the use of various execution methods. Critics argue that the firing squad is a cruel and unusual punishment, while supporters claim it is a more humane option compared to other methods.
The South Carolina Department of Corrections has not released any information about the inmate’s identity or the date of the planned execution. This development is likely to reignite the debate over capital punishment and the use of different methods of execution in the United States.
