ACLU Demands Info on California Executions

SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (CN) - The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is withholding public records about its lethal injection practices and protocols, the American Civil Liberties Union claims in court.

The ACLU's Northern California chapter sued the department of prisons in Marin County Court, claiming it produced only a small number of documents, though "it is clear that a substantial number of responsive and non-privileged documents exist and have not been produced." That violates the California Public Records Act, the ACLU says in its Nov. 18 lawsuit.

The department released its proposed lethal injection regulations on Nov. 6, and the public comment period for the regulations will close on Jan. 22 next year.

The ACLU says the records it requested will help it participate in the public comment process, and "shed light on important issues such as CDCR's choice of drugs to include in the proposed regulations, the source of the drugs, amount of the drugs to be administered, mechanisms to ensure the quality, sterility and potency of the drugs, the method of administration, and the adequacy of CDCR's training protocols."
