Lundbeck’s Pentobarbital kills its 40th patient in Arizona and its 41st patient in Texas on February 29th, 2012

February 29, 2012 - Lundbeck Executes 40 and 41

Lundbeck‘s Pentobarbital kills its 40th patient in Arizona and its 41st patient in Texas on February 29th, 2012.

February 29, 2012 was a double hit for the death lab trio Lundbeck, Hospira and Akorn in the United-States.

Robert Moormann was put to death by the state of Arizona with a single drug instead of a three drug cocktail. Moormann apologized to the victim’s family. Although he had a documented history of psychiatric disorders since youth and evidence of mental retardation, he was nonetheless murdered in the name of justice with a one-drug protocol. According to an Associated Press report, he kept his eyes open during the entire execution. He was pronounced dead at 10:23am. He was 63 years old.

The state of Texas, living up to its reputation, killed George Rivas on the same day. He did not want to spend the rest of life in prison and therefore asked that no appeal be filed on his behalf. Thanks to the assistance of the death lab trio, he got his wish: state assisted suicide. He was pronounced dead at 6:22pm, he was 41 years old.

Lundbeck & Co are now responsible for 41 out of the 50 executions carried out so far in the United States since December 2010.

9 new patients await the infamous trio’s treatment in March 2012:

Keith Thurmond – Texas – March 7, 2012
Robert Towery – Arizona – March 8, 2012
Timothy Stemple – Oklahoma – March 15, 2012
