In this July 7, 2010 photo, Nebraska's lethal injection chamber is seen at the State Penitentiary in Lincoln, Neb. Despite lacking a key drug required for capital punishment, state officials say they’re confident Nebraska will find a way to execute death-row inmates. Attorney General Jon Bruning said he believes the state will return to a position where it can carry out the death penalty. The Department of Correctional Services has the power to change the protocol after a series of public hearings, he said, but has been occupied in the last year with more immediate problems, from prison overcrowding to the recent sentencing scandal in which hundreds of inmates were released too early.
