PTC: February 22, at 1:15 pm in Department 3 COURTROUNDUP By Don Thompson TheAssociatedPress SACRAMENTO Califor- nians face a watershed year as they prepare to decide whether to resume execu- tions that stopped a decade ago or end them entirely. While advocates jockey to put both choices before voters this fall, officials overseeing the 746 con- demned inmates on the na- tion's largest death row are pushing ahead with plans to use a single lethal drug to meet legal requirements amid a nationwide shortage of execution drugs. Supporters said at a pub- lic hearing on Friday that crime victims have waited too long for justice as the state dragged its heels in adopting a new method of execution. Opponents said at the hearing that the state risks botching death sentences if it moves too quickly in making the change. The California Depart- ment of Corrections and Rehabilitation will consider the 20 comments made dur- ing the 90-minute hear- ing and written comments from about 12,000 people as it develops its final reg- ulations. The state is proposing to let corrections officials choose from four types of powerful barbiturates to execute prisoners. A choice would be made for each exe- cution, depending on which drug is available. The proposed single- drug injection process is the latest attempt to resume executions after a federal judge halted executions in 2006 and ordered prison of- ficials to improve execution procedures that used a se- ries of three drugs to knock out an inmate before the le- thal dose was administered.
