Yep, came here to say that.

Lethal injection is almost always administered by an unqualified not a proper doctor, because essentially every doctor refuses to do it.

Why does every doctor refuse to do it?

Because it is horrifically inhumane.

Lethal injection is a cocktail of 3 drugs:

A sedative / anaesthetic.

A paralytic.

A drug that induces a heart attack.

...

Here's some problems:

The guy that came up with the original cocktail did it on a hunch, a best guess, because he wasn't an actual doctor. Just made it up, and we've been going with it for like 70 years, it's cool, trust me bro, I read about this stuff in a magazine.

So... being a proper anaesthesiologist is a highly specialized skill, you have to know a lot about a person's medical history and conditions to properly sedate them.

But almost no lethal injections are done by qualified anaesthesiologists.

That means you often get too small a dose, which means you are conscious, aware, and feel everything, but drowsy, like you accidentally took 3x the nyquil you should have, but cannot actually fall asleep.

Next comes the paralytic!

Which, oops, when you are conscious for that, well, that means you are now actually suffocating to death, as your diaphram is mostly paralyzed and you can't breathe without immense willpower. If you've ever held your breath a long time for something like a deep dive in water, you'll know that the lack of oxygen in your lungs begins to feel like they are on fire. Also, every muscle in your body is now having the worst charlie horse you've ever had, at the same time.

Now for the heart attack inducing drug!

This feels like a burning liquid coursing through your veins, and then entire body. Your paralyzed, oxygen starved lungs now begin to fill with liquid. Then your heart feels like it is going to explode, and then it stops.

Were you not (nearly) totally paralyzed and partially sedated, nor strapped into the death bed, you'd be screaming in agony, flailing around and violently contorting, probably vomiting through gritted, clenched teeth.

This whole process can and has lasted 20 minutes, an hour, two hours.

... Being shot in the heart or head literally is more humane and painless, so is a proper hanging that breaks your neck instead of strangling you.

Only seconds of pain untill brain death.
