Here's his case at SCOTUS: www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docke...

![QUESTIONS PRESENTED
Under South Carolina law, a death-sentenced prisoner “shall suffer the penalty by
electrocution” unless he makes a written election fourteen days before his execution
date between “firing squad or lethal injection, if…available.” S.C. Code § 24-3-530. The
South Carolina Department of Corrections (SCDC) must certify the availability of those
methods “by affidavit under penalty of perjury to” the state supreme court. Id.
These “choice provisions” confer a liberty interest upon a condemned prisoner
that ensures he will “never be subjected to execution by a method he contends is more
inhumane than another method that is available.” Owens v. Stirling, 904 S.E.2d 580,
608 (S.C. 2024). For lethal injection, both the statute and “the Due Process Clause”
require SCDC’s certification to “disclose some basic facts about the drug's creation,
quality, and reliability[.]” Owens, 904 S.E.2d at 604.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreidbodz5xisiejgoipbdnrtuwjxhe6oujtoqxrm6kxsarwiw34ibjq)
![South Carolina’s procedures have proven inadequate to protect this right. The
three men South Carolina has executed since September suffered prolonged executions
and received twice the “single dose of pentobarbital” SCDC certified as sufficient; two
suffered pulmonary edema. But the state still permits SCDC to certify only that the
drugs were tested by the state’s forensic laboratory and withhold information
confirming they are not expired, sub-potent, or spoiled. The scope of the certification
and compressed schedule for election made it impossible for Brad Sigmon to assess
which method is the more inhumane; to avoid the electric chair, he chose firing squad.
The question presented is: Does South Carolina’s compressed timeline and
arbitrary denial of information necessary for a condemned prisoner to exercise his
statutory right “never [to] be subjected to execution by a method he contends is more
inhumane than another method that is available” violate Due Process?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreicfsgnprcxkmcluhjvdk7zmhlfrutwmmstcwh2unatp4axovteay4)

Absolutely. Also reports of lower 'burnout' and improvement in wellbeing.
In a separate report, SCDC said they were able to fill 3 long-term vacant roles after bringing in the scheme, saving 300k on agency costs.
It seems it's a win-win-win.
