The study concluded that the drug protocol was a "failure" because the inmates had below acceptable levels of thiopental in their systems indicating they probably suffered immense pain before they died.The results of this paper suggest that current protocols used for lethal injection in the US probably violate the 8th Amendment of the Constitution which prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=81126 NationMaster is a huge database of statistics comparing the differentcountries of the world.
