Episode description
What can an anesthesiologist tell us about lethal injection? Chief Mark Garrett sits down with Dr. Austin Quina to discuss Tennessee's failed execution attempt involving Christa Pike, how anesthetic drugs work, and the ethical questions facing medical professionals. The conversation covers consciousness and movement, drug supply, informed consent, training, and the debate over physician participation in executions. Dr. Quina offers his clinical perspective and possible explanations; the discussion does not establish the cause of the failed attempt. Hosted by retired California Highway Patrol Chief Mark Garrett.
