The state of Tennessee is making an unprecedented push to execute 10 death row inmates .
Tennessee has executed only six inmates since 1960 and none since 2009. Now the state's attorney
general, Robert Cooper, has asked the Tennessee's highest court (the state supreme court) to set the
execution dates in " an unprecedented push to carry out the death penalty." The 10 inmates have
been on death row for an average of more than 27 years.
Executions were put on hold by Tennessee in 2011 because the state could not obtain one of the
drugs used for lethal injection. The state now has the drug and is prepared to use it.
