The whole procedure to prepare the death row inmate for lethal injection can take up to two hours depending on how hard it is for them to find the vein to insert the needles.

But after they inject the person with the lethal injection drugs it takes around 7 minutes for the inmate to actually die of lethal injection.

Lethal injection is a painful way to die and I've heard it's like getting stabbed.
