Federal judge refuses to block upcoming Alabama nitrogen gas execution
- A federal judge denied Demetrius Frazier's request to stop his nitrogen gas execution, stating he did not prove the method is unconstitutionally cruel and causes psychological terror.
- Chief District Judge Emily C. Marks ruled that Frazier failed to meet the high legal standard required for an injunction.
- Frazier is set to be executed for the 1991 murder of Pauline Brown, with Alabama having previously executed three inmates using nitrogen gas in 2024.
- Witnesses reported that the first executions with nitrogen gas involved involuntary movements, but the judge noted these do not indicate severe psychological pain.
