Tennessee ordered to tell next death row inmate if his doctor will be the same one from Tony Carruthers’ botched execution
A Tennessee judge ordered the state to disclose to death row inmate Darrell Hines whether Dr. Mark Fowler, who was involved in Tony Carruthers’ botched execution in May, will be used for Hines’ scheduled August 13 execution. Carruthers’ sister claims the failed attempt left him partially paralyzed, and Hines argues using the same doctor could lead to similar issues.
