On Tuesday, January 25, 2011, the State of Georgia plans to execute Emanuel Hammond. Mike Vosburg-Casey, who is a member of the extended community of the Open Door in Atlanta GA has been visiting Emanuel on death row for eleven years. Please keep them in your thoughts and
prayers.

This link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_9342000/9342976.stm is to an article about what has been the only available source of at least one of the chemicals used in executions in this country, sodium thiopental - a driving school/pharmacy in West London.

The second article is about Hospira, which was the only US maker of the drug, who has ceased production because their manufacturing moved to Italy, and Italy will not allow them to make the drug. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/21/death-penalty-lethal-injection-drug_n_812267.html
