With Daryl Holton’s execution only 32 hours away, interest in Tennessee’s first electrocution since 1960 is peaking. Media outlets across the state, the nation, and around the world are reporting on what happens when someone that is clearly incompetent for trial decides to be executed by an old method.

Kid’s killer ready to die, chooses the chair
Device’s builder: Death Wednesday to be near ‘torture’
by Sheila Burke, The Tennessean

…However, Fred Leuchter, the man who built the chair in 1989, has asked Gov. Phil Bredesen not to use it, saying it’s been modified in such a way that it will be “tantamount to torture.” “It’s going to be the most horrible way to die possible,” said Leuchter, of Malden, Mass.

Vigil to Protest Death Penalty
by Wendy Isom, The Jackson Sun

…Jesus said “thou shalt not kill,” and that’s what he meant, said Patsy Turner, a devout Catholic who opposes the death penalty. “He didn’t say, ‘thou shalt not kill, except …,'” said Turner, who will be among the attendees at a candlelight vigil to protest the death penalty Tuesday night at Jackson’s Conger Park, on the eve of the scheduled execution of Daryl Holton.
