💨 Abstract

A federal judge in Idaho has ruled that media witnesses must be allowed to observe the preparation and administration of lethal injection drugs during executions. This ruling is part of an ongoing First Amendment lawsuit by news organizations, including The Associated Press, against the Idaho Department of Correction. Idaho prison officials have been ordered to install closed-circuit audio and visual feeds for any executions that occur while the case is in court.
