Interesting story to watch over the next few years. The article said that average time of death by firing squad is 3-5 seconds as compared to minutes that comes from lethal injection. The last time they used this was several years ago and they used 5 cops with 30's from 25 yards out.
Apparently it was a choice that was given to the inmate on death row.

I had no idea there were states that still used this method.
