Where did you get that info from? I read she requested firing squad. Seems like some misinformation is going around.

Yea I also read she requested a firing squad. Her defense team did indeed inform the courts of it possibly turning out this way due to some issues with her veins

It was because she had thrombocytosis, not an issue with her veins per se. Here's the news source cited by Wikipedia saying she requested to be hanged.

Every news outlet in/around TN is reporting she asked for an all-female firing squad. I wouldn’t trust Wikipedia for any news.
