USA - Missouri. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit said the identity of the compounding pharmacy could remain secret.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit has reversed its prior decision and said the identity of the compounding pharmacy that has supplied execution drugs to the state of Missouri could remain secret. Mississippi death row prisoners had sought the identity of the pharmacy as part of their legal challenge to their state's multi-drug execution protocol, in an effort to demonstrate that Mississippi had alternative means of obtaining lethal injection drugs. The case is In re: Missouri Department of Corrections, No. 16-3072.
