Introduction

            The ethics circumventing electric chair and lethal injection have become an issue of concern with the growing debates about their civility. Electric chair and lethal injection remain two most controversial approaches to administering capital punishment. Nonetheless, in recent years, debates have been on the rise about their ethics and which of the two is more humane than the other. The need for public acceptance among the various states across America has led to a division in coming to terms about which one has the potential for public acceptance. Comprehensive research into the two approaches to administering capital punishment calls for in-depth research into their direct effects to develop a way forward. In a society that is extensively divisive on the approach, the necessity for a direct analysis of the capital punishment process is a facet of concern. The need to examine the ethical issues surrounding the electric chair and lethal injection to develop a way forward should prevail.
