Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

So not just medical observation but life-saving measures...?
I am against the death penalty, but honestly I think both may be the worst choice you could have made?
Killing is wrong so we're going to kill you, but oops we messed up killing you so now you must have your life saved, presumably so we can kill you again.
What the fuck?
Imagine waking up in the hospital where they have to get you healthy enough to discharge in order to send you back to death row
Yeah, pretty much anywhere else in the world that would be considered cruel and unusual.
Imagine being held in prison for 30 years, knowing there's no way out and you're gonna be executed, and then when that day comes, they put you through torture by asphyxiation for 40 minutes, to then rush you to the hospital, so you can be saved and they repeat it again.
I don't think a doctor at a hospital gets to change her level of care just because her patient is condemned to death.
Yeah but if you're deliberately killing someone, why would you rush them to a hospital after you failed miserably and left them in a critical condition? So you can try again later?
For fucks sake, what a horrible situation. Just abolish the death penalty already.
Why not?
End of life care is different from "normal" care. Hell, it's a specialization with its own name: palliative care.
And you know the most likely outcome is the person going through the same torturous ordeal again, switching over to palliative is a reasonable decision grounded in medical ethics.
Had this happened in any other way the police would be called and the perpetrators put in prison, which is improbable in this case for obvious reasons. And this wouldn't be possible in a non-backwards society.
My reading of the situation is that she suffered severe brain damage. It might be debatable if 'she' is even there any more for them to try and kill a third time.
Oh lord. So if she ends up with serious cognitive issues they might not be able to kill her.
This is the white bear episode of black mirror in real life.
Her brain is probably fried so if they do try again they will be killing a veggie.
