This man is the latest to suffer a botched execution in the United States.<br/> <br />Joseph Wood -- an Arizona inmate -- took almost two hours to die by lethal injection.<br/> <br />His lawyers say he "gasped and snorted" before being pronounced dead.<br/> <br />During that time, lawyers said they appealed to multiple federal courts to have the execution halted and the client given life saving treatment.<br/> <br />The appeal was denied.<br/> <br />The convicted double murderer was one of six death row prisoners who sued Arizona last month, claiming that secrecy surrounding the drugs used in other botched executions violated his rights.<br/> <br />This latest failed execution is likely to raise yet more questions about the lethal injection and whether it is humane.
