A 58-year-old man was convicted in 1989 for murdering Elizabeth Sennett. For his crime, he was sentenced to death row and has been waiting for 35 years. Over the years, he tried multiple times to appeal but each time has been a failure. However, as of 1/23/24 he only has 30 hours left till he is put to death by Nitrogen gas which is the first in U.S history. As his only way to avoid death, he makes one last final appeal. How this may affect us is that the government may approve more different kinds of death sentences that may be cruel.
