Alabama killed Alan Miller tonight. His jury recommended death 10-2. Alabama allows non-unanimous death recommendations and the majority of people on death row there either had a non-unanimous jury or a judicial override.

Early returns suggest whatever was in Miller's settlement did not prevent a botched execution.

"The gas appeared to start flowing into the mask at 6:16 p.m. His fingers moved slightly on the gurney as his spiritual advisor approached him and touched his leg, praying over Miller. Miller then took deep breaths and lifted his head off the gurney several times at 6:18 p.m. He struggled against the restraints on the gurney, shaking and trembling for about two minutes. Then, Miller gasped off and on for about six minutes. At 6:23 p.m., a correctional officer leaned down and listened to Miller’s breath."
