Alabama Supreme Court approves nitrogen gas execution for Carey Dale Grayson, despite ongoing lawsuit.
Alabama's Supreme Court approves a third nitrogen gas execution, as Carey Dale Grayson, convicted for the 1994 murder of Vickie Deblieux, is set to be executed using the method. Grayson is currently involved in a lawsuit seeking to block this method, claiming it causes unconstitutional pain and "conscious suffocation". This follows the state's first nitrogen gas execution in January and another scheduled for September.
