Tennessee’s botched attempt to execute Tony Carruthers today spotlights how the death penalty truly is the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment. Nobody should be treated this way. Instead of issuing a one-year reprieve from execution, we call on Governor Lee to end this cruelty and commute Tony Carruthers death sentence. https://t.co/7m2x43MlT1
