South Carolina will perform its third execution in September as the state continues to turn to the lag of prisoners who have exhausted their complaints while employees struggle to get deadly injection drugs, AP reports.
The performance of Marion Bauman, Jr., is scheduled for 6:00 pm on Friday at a prison in Colombia. The 44-year-old was found guilty of murder for the death of a friend of a friend whose charred remains were found in the trunk of the car.

After his arrest, Bauman insists on his innocence. His lawyers claim that his sentence relies on the testimony of numerous friends and relatives who have received legal basis agreements or have dismissed the allegations in exchange for their cooperation.
Bauman, who had spent more than half his life at death of death, had an opportunity for an agreement on a legal basis that would lead to a life sentence. However, he chose to withstand the court, maintaining that he was not guilty.
Friday’s execution follows the state’s decision to eliminate a 13-year suspension, partly due to the inability of officials to acquire deadly injection drugs. After the General Assembly introduced a shield law, prison authorities provided a complex pharmacy ready to produce Pentobarbital, provided that his identity remains confidential.
Bauman does not seek reconciliation from governor Henry McMaster. His lawyer Lindsay Van said Bauman did not want to spend more decades in prison for a crime, which claims he was not committed.
“After over twenty years, struggling against an insufficient system that failed it at every step, the choice of Marion is a strong rejection of an unfair process that has already taken so much of his life,” Van says in a statement on Thursday.
No South Carolina Governor has ever given a pardon to reduce the death sentence to life without a suspended release of 45 executions committed after the 1976 death penalty resumed.
Bauman was sentenced in 2002 in Dorchester County for the 2001 murder of 21-year-old Kanda Martin. Several friends and relatives testified against him as part of a legal basis.
A witness claims that Bauman is angry because Martin owes him money while another said he suspected she was carrying a recording device to arrest him.
Bauman admitted that he was selling drugs to Martin, whom he had known for years, and said he sometimes pays with sex. However, he denied killing her.
Bowman, like the two, performed earlier prisoners, as the moratorium is over, is black. His lawyers say in a final appeal that his court lawyer was excessive sympathy for his white victim, but South Carolina’s Supreme Court dismissed the claim as unfounded.
Another question raised by Bauman’s legal team refers to his weight. The anesthesiologist expressed concern that the undisclosed procedures for the deadly injection of South Carolina may not take into account the listed weight of 389 pounds (176 kilograms) in prison records. In cases of obesity, establishing the IV line correctly and determining the required dose of the drug may be a challenge.
According to autopsy reports, prison staff administered two doses of pentobarbital, located at a distance of 11 minutes during the last execution.
Before the 13-year suspension, South Carolina was among the most active states in executing execution. The shield law adopted last year allowed the state to maintain its privacy supplier to Pentobarbital, which allows prisons to acquire the drug.
The Supreme Court of the State approved the resumption of executions in July. Freddie Owens was killed through a deadly injection on September 20, followed by Richard Moore on November 1st.
The executions will now happen every five weeks, while the other three prisoners who have exhausted their complaints are being implemented.
As the death penalty was restored in the United States in 1976, South Carolina fulfilled 45 individuals. In the early 2000s, the country was on average three executions a year. Nine other countries have carried out more executions.

However, the population of the death of South Carolina has decreased significantly since the unforeseen pause. At the beginning of 2011, the state was housed 63 convicted prisoners. Since then, this number has dropped to 30, with about 20 prisoners having received different sentences after successful appeals, while others have died for natural reasons.
