I don’t know. I never tried it wanted to kill someone but if you had access to meds like opioids and stuff like that I’m almost certain it’s not too difficult to kill someone (quickly).
I also think they would be able to find a corrupted vet who has a lot of experience with deadly injections. Or one of those insane chiropractors that pretend to be doctors could just rip their head off with a Y-Strap (didn’t mean this seriously)
If you get it up too high, too fast, there’s all sorts of other effects on the body. Seizures, vomiting, panic. If you get it too low, you’re running into problems where you might cause brain damage, or organ failure without death.
They usually use a cocktail of drugs that put the victim unconscious, paralyzed, and then dead.
The details matter. If it was simple, it wouldn’t be a problem. People ASSUMING that it’s easy is why we have failed executions and victims struggling, panicking, and not actually dying. It’s bad for everyone.
State sanctioned murder is nearly always wrong, and shouldn’t be done. Not JUST because it’s difficult to do correctly, but also because it’s just not the best way to accomplish the task of stopping major crimes.
You could easily make a machine that monitors vitals and titrates out like Fentanyl and Midizolam or Alprazolam or whatever benzo to take care of that.
No, you can’t EASILY do that. You could spend a ton of research to design a machine, but you’d never get anyone to sign off that the design was proper
You would also need a SKILLED technician to operate such a machine, and that would require someone with medical training to do so. The vast majority of people who spend significant time and money getting that training wouldn’t use it to kill people.
So now you’re left with someone who wants to kill people, designing a machine with no oversight, run by someone who wants to kill people, with little or no training. That’s literally what’s happening now, and is the reason that people are looking for alternatives.

It’s not just a linear “happy -> dead”
