Alabama on Thursday executed an inmate convicted of murdering a driver that gave him a ride in 1996.The Supreme Court sided with the state and rejected claims that his intellectual disability misled him to accept death by means of lethal injection rather than a new, alternative method recently legalized by the state.The execution of 44-year-old Matthew Reeves had been temporarily blocked by a lower court after he claimed the state did not help him understand the paperwork that would have allowed him to be executed via nitrogen hypoxia.
