Why do they give death row inmates an alcohol swab befor injecting them? any help on this ponder would be helpful? ... (Asked by )

Just a guess would be a combination of habit (as the other answerer so far has said), and perhaps the extremely unlikely possibility that there will be a reprieve of some sort after the IV lines go in, but before the lethal injection is released. So they'd do the sterile-site thing so there'd be a decreased chance of the prisoner getting some blood-borne disease. It's very good question, though. The prison system will go to great lengths to keep a deathrow inmate alive so that s/he'll be healthy at the time of execution. That's justice, no?...(Answered by Ron C)
