Eyewitness account to first US nitrogen gas execution: Inmate gasped for air and shook

Quick Glance: Alabama's First Execution with Nitrogen Gas: What Happened and What's Next

Kenneth Smith was executed using nitrogen hypoxia, marking the nation’s first known execution with this method.

Smith, 58, sentenced to death for a 1988 murder-for-hire, previously survived a failed lethal injection attempt in 2022.
