    Dozens of medical professionals join call for Tenn. to halt executions until improvements are made

    Nearly 40 medical professionals, along with advocacy groups and lawmakers, urge Tennessee Governor Bill Lee to halt executions following a botched attempt on Tony Carruthers in May. They criticize the Tennessee Department of Correction's compliance with legal and ethical standards and question the legitimacy of lethal injection drugs. The next execution is scheduled for August 13, with Carruthers receiving a one-year reprieve.
