In a 6-3 decision, the high court declined to overturn a lower-court ruling that deemed the nitrogen gas method unconstitutionally cruel. This decision thwarted Alabama's last-minute legal effort to proceed with the execution, which was called off for the evening. Lee's legal team praised the ruling, noting his jury had initially voted for a life sentence, while Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall vowed to continue seeking to carry out the sentence.
