Pharmacy Compounding Missouri Lethal Injections Must Be Publicized

The Missouri Department of Corrections (DOC) has violated the state’s Sunshine Law by refusing to reveal the name of a pharmacy that compounds lethal injections, a Missouri judge ruled.

The purpose of the Sunshine Law is to allow for transparency in government, meaning that meetings, records, votes, and official actions must be made public.

Three separate groups have sued the Missouri DOC for refusing to disclose the name of the pharmacy for multiple open records requests.

The DOC argued that the compounding pharmacy is part of the execution team, whose members may remain secret.

The language of Missouri’s law states “The director of the DOC shall select an execution team which shall consist of those persons who administer lethal gas or lethal chemicals and those persons, such as medical personnel, who provide direct support for the administration of lethal gas or lethal chemicals. The identities of members of the execution team, as defined in the execution protocol of the department of corrections, shall be kept confidential.”
