The Spin

Left narrative

After multiple botched attempts to execute inmates, Alabama is looking to redeem itself by killing James Barber despite clear questions about the state’s protocols. The death penalty is a horrendous stain on America as is, but adding the horror of a potentially botched injection is appalling.

Right narrative

Capital punishment is reserved for the most heinous crimes, such as the one committed by James Barber. Gov. Ivey and Alabama authorities have conducted a thorough review of the issues that used to plague the lethal injection methods of the state and implemented the appropriate reforms. There's no reason to delay this justice.
