Comments from feedback form - "The condemed person must not s..."

The condemed person must not suffer cruel or unusual punishment.However,painless death would be mrciful.My question is when sodiunthopental is used in an exicution: 1-d oes thecomdenmed person become unconsious before dying? Is the conemned person able to feel or experience any pain? 3- Are ther any harmful side effects that would cause anyone taking this drug to soffer? If the answers to questions 1.2.&3 are all no,and due process of law has beeen served,I see no harm in continuing production of sodium thiopental, and using it as medicaly directd-for exicution- or therwise.

The effectiveness of Sodium Thiopental varies from person to person. Historical evidence suggests that an unknown quantity of lethal injection executions occur with the subject awake and aware of their bodily shutdown, due to incorrect use of the anesthetic agent. It's almost impossible to be 100 percent sure when the goal is to get things over with quickly and efficiently.
