South Carolina man Brag Sigmon to be executed on Friday by firing squad.

Sigmon will be strapped to a firing squad chair with a hood over his head and a target over his heart, according to the AP.

The 67-year-old was convicted of double m*rder in 2001 where he k*lled his ex-girlfriend's parents with a baseball bat.

Sigmon says he prefers the firing squad because he was worried the electric chair would "cook him alive."

He also rejected the lethal injection option because it took previous inmates over 20 minutes to pass away.

Sigmon says he knows his passing will be a violent one but sees it as his only good option.

"He does not wish to inflict that pain on his family, the witnesses, or the execution team. But, given South Carolina’s unnecessary and unconscionable secrecy, Brad is choosing as best he can," his lawyer said. https://x.com/CollinRugg/status/1897343506093412719
