\nExecution doctors an ethics issue<\/a><\/p>\n

Medical groups criticize plan for physician to assess if the condemned can feel pain.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A plan for California to use an anesthesiologist to monitor the chemically induced demise of a condemned killer has ignited concerns that doctors have no business assisting executions.<\/p>\n

Medical groups, including the California Medical Association and the American Society of Anesthesiologists, were quick to condemn the plan, stemming from a ruling by U.S. District Judge Jeremy Fogel requiring the state to adopt certain safeguards to ensure that inmates don’t feel excessive pain.<\/p>\n

“Physicians are healers, not executioners,” the national anesthesiology group said in a statement Wednesday. “The doctor-patient relationship depends upon the inviolate principle that a doctor uses his or her medical expertise only for the benefit of patients.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I bet Jack Kevorkian<\/a> would get a kick out of that one.<\/p>\n

And these guys need to go to jail:<\/p>\n

\nDefense tries to clear air on clemency plea<\/a><\/p>\n

Lawyers representing condemned inmate Michael Angelo Morales embarked on a damage-control campaign Thursday – three days after they attracted national publicity by withdrawing clemency documents that may have been forged.<\/p>\n

In a letter to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Web logs and an invitation to a press conference this afternoon at San Quentin State Prison, the lawyers tried to shift the attention away from themselves and onto their client, repeating contentions that Morales was framed and “has had nothing to do” with the suspected forgeries by a defense investigator.<\/p>\n

The flurry of activity also seemed designed to put distance between the controversy and Morales’ recently recruited big-name attorney, former Whitewater prosecutor Kenneth Starr. His connection with the case – and, now, the forgery allegations – has been reported nationally.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
