Tennessee executes another inmate by electric chair after supreme court battle
David Earl Miller was the second inmate in five weeks to reject the state’s preferred method of execution
A convicted killer who spent more than 36 years on death row in Tennessee was executed by electric chair on Thursday, the second time in five weeks that the state used electrocution to carry out a death sentence.
Corrections officials say 61-year-old David Earl Miller was pronounced dead at 7.25 pm Thursday at a Nashville maximum-security prison.
