Florida executes man with untested cocktail of drugs
Florida has executed a 53-year-old man convicted of two 1987 murders, using a lethal injection that included a drug never before used in a US execution. The execution was carried out at 6.22 pm local time at the Florida State Prison in Bradford County, about 50 miles southwest of Jacksonville, where the two murders took place. Mark James Asay was the first white man to be put to death in Florida for killing a black man since the state reinstated the death penalty in 1979.
