If voters repeal the death penalty ban, Nebraska will have to make some changes in order to carry out executions. Attorney General Doug Peterson says they are already looking at options.
Peterson says when Nebraska switched from the electric chair to lethal injection the standard was to use a three drug combination. He says now only one drug is used so that is one issue that will need to be addressed. He says Nebraska may also want to consider a shield law where the identity of the person who compiles the drug remains unknown to the public.
Peterson says they have been doing their homework and monitoring how other states are carry out executions. He says they have provided models as to what changes need to be made here.
