A '''''force majeure''''' argument was used by [[Oswald Danes]]' legal team to secure his parole after the events of [[Miracle Day]]. According to a contemporaneous [[KCNU]] news report, Danes was freed after his [[execution]] failed. The charity legal group, [[Freedom and Liberty]], "employed a ''force majeure'' ruling to define Danes' survival as an Act of [[God]]". Since the [[state]] of [[Kentucky]] could not immediately prove otherwise, they were compelled to set him free. This was aided through the citation of the [[Fifth Amendment]] forbidding being punished more than once for the same crime (his lethal injection had been carried out) and the [[Eighth Amendment]] forbidding cruel and unusual punishment (a normally painless death was made painful via Miracle Day).
