What really happens when the state kills someone?In this shocking episode of Death Row Stories, I sit down with Corinna Barrett Lain, author of Secrets of the Killing State, to expose the dark, hidden world of lethal injection, botched executions, and the secret systems behind the death penalty in America.For years, states have claimed lethal injection is clean, humane, and reliable. But what if that’s not true? In this conversation, Corinna Barrett Lain reveals the disturbing history of execution drugs, execution protocols, Supreme Court decisions, and the shocking ways states have scrambled for drugs to carry out executions — including midazolam, pentobarbital, nitrogen gas, and even questionable drug sourcing.We also dig into the most terrifying questions: Why do executions go wrong so often? Why is so much of this hidden from the public? And what does the law really say about cruel and unusual punishment? If you think you know how lethal injection works, this interview will change your mind.This episode is essential viewing for anyone interested in true crime, capital punishment, criminal justice, death row, execution methods, law, Supreme Court cases, and the hidden reality of how the state carries out death sentences in the United States.Subscribe to stay informed and engaged with the stories that need to be told.Discover our podcast YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@Death-Row-Stories
