Murderer Kenneth Eugene Smith is executed by nitrogen hypoxia at the age of 59 in Holman Correctional Facility, Ross Road, Atmore, Alabama, United States.


Smith's final meal request was for steak and eggs with hash browns. The execution took about 22 minutes. Smith appeared to remain conscious for several of those minutes, at times appearing to shake and writhe on the gurney and pull against his restraints. This was followed by several minutes of heavy breathing, until his breathing was no longer perceptible.
