If you had to choose a method of execution for yourself, which would you choose? What if you learned that what is considered the most "humane' method of execution is probably the most painful? We discuss the controversy behind lethal injections, and why just about any other method may be a better option. Convicted murderer Dennis McGuire found out about this the hard way, and his botched execution left onlookers stunned and horrified. We also hear a bizarre murder confession caught on tape by a news crew that ends up becoming part of the story. Plus part 2 of the Curtis Reeves bail hearing!
