Deborah Denno comments to Politiken about American death row prisoners risking extreme pain during their executions as a result of an anaesthetic produced by the Danish company Lundbeck.
Fordham University Law Professor and Death Penalty Expert Deborah Denno says that Lundbeck has got itself into a hornet’s nest.
“It means that this company will now be associated with people who die. A company that produces a substance that helps people becomes a company that kills people from one day to the next,” she says.
The entire story appeared in Danish newspaper Politiken on January 28, 2011.
