The family of executed Alabama inmate Joe Nathan James Jr. is suing Gov. Kay Ivey and other state officials, claiming James suffered excessive pain in the hours before his execution and was unconscious before he was put to death.
James, eyes closed and without speaking, died after correctional officials spent nearly three hours trying to start an intravenous line for the lethal drugs to be administered. The seeming lack of consciousness is a point of contention about what happened that night.
The lawsuit says Joe James suffered “excessive pain during his prolonged execution and deprived him of the right to be conscious and speak his final words before the administration of the lethal drugs.” The lawsuit claims the prison system contacted Ivey while workers were trying to start Joe James’ IV on the night of his execution, and she “demanded that the execution proceed and failed to intervene to call off the execution after it became clear that the execution was going awry, that Mr. James had sustained multiple injuries, and that Mr. James had been rendered unconscious.
