Miller, 57, was convicted of killing three people in a 1999 workplace rampage, drawing the death sentence. A judge blocked the state's execution plan earlier this week. Thursday night's Supreme Court ruling vacated that injunction at the request of the state. Justices lifted the stay at about 9 p.m. giving the state a three hour window to get the execution underway before the death warrant expires at midnight. The July execution oftook more than three hours to get underway after the state had difficulties establishing an intravenous line.
Many states have struggled to buy execution drugs in recent years after U.S. and European pharmaceutical companies began blocking the use of their products in lethal injections. That has led some to seek alternate methods.
