Episode #026 - I'll Take the Firing Squad
Manage episode 236105098 series 2355905
WARNING: This episode of Things That Keep Me Up at Night contains some graphic descriptions of executions. Specific trigger warnings below, but, as the entire last third of the episode includes graphic descriptions of botched lethal injections, listen with your own mental health in mind.
Where do YOU stand on the death penalty debate? For our second installment of the Prison System Series, Brooke breaks down just what goes into sentencing someone to death. Spoilers: it's not as simple as you'd think. Or as cheap. Or painless. Pretty much just toss anything you think you know about the death penalty out the window. Buckle up, kids - this one's a sad trip down humanity's weird obsession with killing people.
Featuring: risking kidneys to find an apartment, drunk Hammurabi, and several moments of silence for Joseph Arridy (and all other death row inmates wrongfully convicted and executed for crimes they didn't commit).
Promo: Killer Jobs
Trigger Warnings:
43:30 - rape, abuse, racism
1:03:36 - gruesome description of the effects of the electric chair
Last third of the episode: disturbing descriptions of botched lethal injections
