LAS VEGAS (AP) — Nevada prison officials got the go-ahead Thursday to execute the state’s first death-row inmate in 12 years, after the state Supreme Court ruled that defense lawyers and a rights group used the wrong process to try to stop the lethal injection.
Justices sidestepped the question of whether the state should use a never-before-tried combination of drugs that prison officials drew up for the execution of Scott Raymond Dozier.

We don't need a hearing to know that fentanyl will kill him quickly if the dose is right. I don't agree with the paralytic but the people he murdered probably didn't agree with getting dead either.

So the standards set for the state's murders should be those demonstrated by the offender?
