No Amnesty
Ok, let me get this straight. The Supreme Court has ruled that no mentally ill prisoner can be executed. There is a prisoner on death row in Arkansas who has become mentally ill while in prison (like that's unusual). Arkansas cannot execute him, but according to a US Federal Appeals Court they CAN force him to take psychiatric meds to make him sane, even though the treatment would lead to his execution. Therefore, they can kill him after all.
