Tennessee Murderer Faces Execution Today:  A double-murderer who won a federal court ruling ordering Tennessee to execute him in the electric chair may get his wish today.  Katherine Lam of Fox News reports that Edmund Zagorski won the October 10 ruling arguing that the state's three-drug lethal injection process would subject him to feeling like he was drowning and burning alive at the same time.  His lawyer said that his client's execution in "old sparky" would be the lesser of two evils.  In 1984 Zagorski lured two men into the woods to buy drugs, where he murdered them and stole their money and pickup truck.  

Update:  Zagorski was executed in old sparky at 7:26 pm Thursday night, after SCOTUS turned down his last minute appeal arguing that allowing him to choose the electric chair rather than lethal injection, which delayed his execution for a month, was unconstitutional.  The Tennessean has the story.
