Alabama Executes Anthony Boyd Jr. on Oct 23 with Nitrogen Gas: Cruel & Unusual? | Deep Dive w/ Jus
In this intense and eye-opening episode, me and Jus break down Alabama’s execution of Anthony Boyd Jr. on October 23, 2025 — the eighth person in U.S. history to face death by nitrogen hypoxia, and the state's most controversial yet.
We cover it all:
- The 1993 crime: the kidnapping and burning alive of Gregory Huguley over a $200 drug debt
- Why Alabama chose nitrogen gas (and how it's supposed to work)
- Eyewitness accounts of Boyd's "violent thrashing," over 225 agonized breaths, and a 19+ minute struggle — longer than any prior case
- Supreme Court dissent by Justice Sotomayor calling it "cruel" and a violation of the 8th Amendment
- Comparisons to Kenneth Smith's 2024 execution and the growing lawsuits against the method
- The core debate: Is nitrogen "humane" innovation or just rebranded torture? And what does this mean for the future of capital punishment?
This is 100% based on court records, witness statements, and verified news — no sensationalism, just raw facts and thoughtful analysis to spark real conversation.
