The Maricopa County Attorney's Office has agreed to dismiss a lawsuit against Arizona after receiving assurances it can now carry out executions.
, Thornell said the department has been prepared since May 5 to carry out an execution should a warrant for one be issued. The only remaining matter would be the compounding of the execution drugs because they have a limited shelf life, he said.
"As part of that lawsuit, ADCRR has now affirmed to the victims, MCAO, and the court that it is operationally prepared to carry out executions in compliance with the law," the statement said.In a statement, Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell said, “It is agonizing for families to remain mired in grief and anger as they await justice.
"I believe the law is clear ― once a defendant is sentenced to death, the state is obligated to act," Mitchell said."I am committed to these families and will continue to take appropriate steps to make sure that they do receive justice and that the law is enforced."
