He died like a dog.
Quote:
The execution began after a 3 1/2 minute final statement where Stanko apologized to his victims and asked not to be judged by the worst day of his life. Witnesses could hear prison officials asking for the first dose of the powerful sedative pentobarbital which was different from previous executions.
Stanko appeared to be saying words, turned toward the families of the victims and then let out several quick breaths as his lips quivered.
Stanko appeared to stop breathing after a minute. His ruddy complexion quickly disappeared and the color drained from his face and hands. A prison employee asked for a second dose of pentobarbital about 13 minutes later. He was announced dead about 28 minutes after the execution started.

Literally, that's how veterinarians kill dogs.
Although probably not that exact drug. Let's not google that to check.
