Death row inmate dies in agony

Dennis Mcguire 53 died an agonising death from lethal injection, his family lawyers now intend to sue the state of Ohio.  They claim it's breached his constitutional rights, no mention of the rights of the pregnant woman he raped and murdered in 1989 I notice.
I'm sorry but the whole point of the death penalty is to be a deterrent, a nice fluffy marshmallow death isn't actually much of a deterrent, a long slow lingering painful death on the other hand just might put people off.
