Tennessee's corrections chief plans to introduce a new execution method by early 2023 due to lethal injection issues.
Tennessee's corrections chief, Frank Strada, announced plans to introduce a new execution process for inmates by the end of the year or early January. This follows a pause in executions since early 2022, initiated by Governor Bill Lee due to issues with lethal injection drug testing. An independent review in December 2022 criticized the state's execution protocols. Strada emphasized the need for a thorough and legally sound process, but specific details remain undisclosed.
