The state Justice Cabinet Thursday sent its proposed changes to the state's lethal injection process to the legislature.

The proposal makes some changes based on input from a public hearing in September.

Execution Policy http://wkms.org/post/critics-find-issues-proposed-new-ky-execution-policy <p>Critics of Kentucky's proposed new death&nbsp;penalty method have asked officials to make multiple changes to how executions are carried out now that the state is switching to a one- or two-drug lethal injection. During a hearing Tuesday in Frankfort, public defenders, private attorneys and anti-death penalty activists said the rules Kentucky wants to put in place have multiple problems, including that condemned inmates aren't allowed access to their attorneys on the day of execution.
