Death by Nitrogen: The Shocking Story of America's First Nitrogen Gas Execution

By Andrew Flores

How would you feel if you had the power to choose your own death? How would you feel if you had to choose between a familiar but flawed method of execution or a novel but untested method of execution? How would you feel if you had to choose between a method of execution that is based on a scientific phenomenon that is still poorly understood and that could have unknown and unpredictable effects and consequences?

This is the shocking story of America's first nitrogen gas execution, which involved three inmates who chose and agreed to die by nitrogen hypoxia, a new and untested method of execution that kills by depriving the body and the brain of oxygen. This is also the story of the legal, moral, and practical implications and alternatives of the nitrogen gas execution, which raised and debated various questions and issues about the constitutionality, humanity, reliability, effectiveness, justification, deservedness, necessity, and benefit of capital punishment, or the legal and authorized killing of a person by the state, as a punishment for a crime.

This is also the story of the history and the future of capital punishment in the U.S. and the world, which showed and revealed the evolution and the change, the trends and the challenges, the perspectives and the views, and the solutions and the alternatives of the death penalty debate, which is the ongoing and unresolved discussion and controversy about the morality, legality, and effectiveness of capital punishment. This is also the story of the ethics and the science of nitrogen hypoxia, which explained and predicted the effects and consequences of nitrogen hypoxia on the human body and the human mind, and which guided and judged the use of nitrogen hypoxia as a method of execution.

This book is a captivating and informative, provocative and challenging, entertaining and engaging, and inspiring and enlightening book for the readers and the writers about the shocking story of America's first nitrogen gas execution, about the implications and alternatives of the nitrogen gas execution, about the history and the future of capital punishment in the U.S. and the world, and about the ethics and the science of nitrogen hypoxia.
