The same reason much of Iraq is really screwed right now. When the Americans came in, they destroyed all the infrastructure and people and replaced them with those with no experience and who didn't know how to do the jobs properly.
That probably includes the hangmen and prison officials...Back when they still hung people in Britain (up to the early 60s I believe), they had it down to a science.
