Supreme Court says lethal injections are okay

The Supreme Court has upheld Kentucky's use of lethal injections for executions.

The justices, in a fractured decision, rejected a constitutional challenge to the procedures in place in Kentucky, which uses three drugs to sedate, paralyze and kill inmates.

Executions have been on hold since September, when the court agreed to hear the Kentucky case. There was no immediate indication when they would resume.


Game on.
