But is it fair?
Lisa Montgomery - the only female inmate on federal death row in the US - has been executed for murder.
She received a lethal injection at a prison in Terre Haute, Indiana, after a last-minute stay of execution was lifted by the US Supreme Court.
The case attracted attention because her lawyers argued she was mentally ill and suffered serious abuse as a child.

The 52-year-old strangled a pregnant woman before cutting out and kidnapping her baby in Missouri in 2004.
Her victim, 23-year-old Bobbie Jo Stinnett, bled to death but her baby was safely recovered and returned to her family.
Montgomery is the first female federal inmate to be put to death by the US government in 67 years.
According to witnesses, a woman standing next to Montgomery during the execution process, removed the inmate's face mask and asked her if she had any last words. Montgomery responded no, and said nothing else.

Her lawyers said anyone who participated in this execution should feel shame. Are they right? * +

I don't agree with the death penalty in any circumstances. She was obviously mentally ill for doing what she did. Life in a secure mental institution and medication would in my mind have been appropriate. * +

Well one thing's for sure; she definitely won't be reoffending ever again though. * +
