Criminal execution

Yes — there were many dangers to the rate of production. Except the foolish and those in great pain, the injured and sick failed to seek medical treatment until they were routed out of bed (or from hiding places if they couldn t work) and ordered to the hospital. It had taken Duke Minskoff a long time to connect the Farben directors with the prisoners reluctance to go to the hospital. He had talked to Dr. Vetter before Vetter was executed for conducting criminal medical experiments, but by that time Dr. Vetter... [Pg.215]

In practice, the Patriot Act and its successors, has circumvented the check and balance system. The Executive Branch has, for example, lowered the threshold of probable cause to the level of suspicion it has equated criminal activity with terrorist activity it has removed or delayed notice requirements for warrants it has required mandatory compliance on third parties for the production of information gathered secredy it has imposed a gag order upon notice and production of information it permits sharing of confidential personal information between investigative units and minimized the role of the judiciary. The overall effect is the Executive Branch and Justice Department are assuming power to define application of the Fourth Amendment. An additional result is the collection of a wide variety of highly personal and sensitive information on law-abiding individuals. [Pg.274]

Barbiturates such as mephobarbital (Mebaral) and pentobarbital (Nembutal), although not prescribed as often as the BZDs, may be used to treat anxiety, tension, and sleep disorders. Veterinarians also use pentobarbital (Nembutal) for anesthesia and euthanasia. In some states, a form of barbiturate is used to execute criminals by lethal injection. [Pg.469]

British-dominated Municipal Council (headed again by Lord Keswick) turned over trade union leaders and others to Green Gang criminals who executed them. (16) Had the Shanghai massacre occurred during the previous century, it would have been known as the Third Opium War the consequence of the slaughter was yet another dramatic increase in British opium control over China. [Pg.277]

To prevent an escalation of the partisan warfare in Rome, the Wehrmacht Supreme Command reacted to this assassination (which had violated international law) by posting placards announcing that if the perpetrators did not turn themselves in, 10 civilians would be shot for every policeman that had been killed. Kappler even released captured partisans with the order to inform the assassins in the underground of this announcement and to persuade them to surrender. When no one had given themselves up by March 24, 335 persons were executed in the Ardeatine Caves near Rome Kappler had assembled this group mostly of prisoners, and of criminals, saboteurs, spies and partisans who had already previously been sentenced to death. [Pg.529]

Poisoning has also been used as a means of official execution. The American states that use the gas chamber for executing criminals employ cyanide gas for the purpose. These days a lethal injection is the more usual method of execution. In some states in the USA and in China (which approved this method of execution only in 1997), for example, three chemicals are used. First, a barbiturate drug (sodium thiopental) is injected into a vein (this is called an intravenous injection), which rapidly causes unconsciousness (within thirty seconds). The victim is therefore unaware of what follows. Then pancuronium bromide, a muscle relaxant drug, is injected into the vein, which paralyses the muscles of the diaphragm within about three minutes and so stops respiration. Finally, a... [Pg.214]

From a legal perspective, the chief executive officer (CEO) or president of a firm is considered the most responsible official and thereby becomes the most liable. Therefore, he is subject to criminal prosecution should the organization be found to violate the Food, Drug and Cosmetic (FDC) Act. One of the most serious infractions is fraud, that is, the intent to mislead the FDA. Hence, it is incumbent on the CEO to have well-qualified personnel in the organization and an organizational structure that reinforces quality. [Pg.1943]

The trenchant blade of the Japanese sword is notorious , wrote Lord Redesdale. It is said that the best blades will, in the hands of an expert swordsman, cut through the dead bodies of three men, laid one upon the other, at a blow. The swords of the Shogun were wont to be tested on the corpses of executed criminals it is said that the public headsman was entrusted with this duty and that for a nose-medicine or bribe he would substitute the sword of a private individual for that of his lord, and that the executioner earned many a fee from those who wished to see how their swords would cut off a head. [Pg.266]

But what of the crucifixion of Jesus Well, for a start, one of the names for the mushroom which has come down in Aramaic, with a somewhat different reference, was The Little Cross. To understand the significance of this folk-name, we have to appreciate the nature of the ancient instrument of death. The Roman crux, or cross itself, was a straight or forked piece of wood which the criminal carried across his shoulders like a yoke to the place of execution. There his wrists were tied to the extremities of the yoke and this stretcher was then hoisted to the top of a pole set in the ground (the Greek stauros). [Pg.13]
