This 2008 copyrighted story relates various aspects of a failed execution by lethal injection and the resultant twists. Johnny Lee Childress is a convicted child killer who is a pariah even among his peers on Death Row. After the physician injects Childress with chemicals that should have shut down his breathing and heartbeat, the condemned man slips into a coma. He awakens ten days later a totally different man. He is affable and tells the world that Childress is dead. It seems that while awaiting final judgement, his spirit followed the light trail back to the execution chamber. Jonathon, as he now calls himself because he does not know exactly who he is, argues that he is not the killer and should not be executed. Jonathon becomes an international figure overnight. Eventually he is granted a new trial and is acquitted.
