From the archives: 2-27-23Execution by firing squad is a method of capital punishment in which a group of trained shooters simultaneously fire their weapons at the individual being executed. Historically, this method was used by many countries, but today it is only used in a handful of places.The process typically involves binding the condemned individual to a post or chair and placing a target over their heart. A group of shooters, usually between three and twelve individuals, then take aim and fire simultaneously. The goal is to ensure a quick and relatively painless death.In this episode, we take a look at the new bill that was proposed by a lawmaker in Idaho that would see the firing squad brought back and what that means for Bryan Kohberger.(commercial at 8:25)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger could face firing squad if convicted of Idaho students' murders (nypost.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Idaho Supreme Court Chief Justice Richard Bevan urged lawmakers to increase judicial compensation to help with challenges in recruiting and keeping judges in Idaho's state courts. "Judges are elected officials, but taking that office requires the new judge to undergo a dramatic transition," Bevan said.
