Christopher Newton's cousin, Cathy Grant of Peoria, Illinois reacts moments after receiving word that her cousin is dead. Cathy had visited Chris earlier in the morning with his sister and had left with the sister and then returned to wait in the parking lot of the prison.
This place was commissioned in 1847 and has a dark past. It is located in the Long Island Sound off the coast of New Rochelle. I took this shot with my iPhone while out there fishing.

Execution Rocks Lighthouse is located in Long Island Sound. Legend has it that the British used to chain prisoners to the rocks at low tide and wait for them to drown as the tide came in. The lighthouse was built in the 1840's and recently handed over to a non-profit for restoration. It is a 30 minute boat ride away from the shore, and has no electricity or running water, plus it is rumored to be haunted.

Isolated inside its own fenced courtyard, the small building is known simply enough as the execution chamber. Between the years of 1937 and 1989, 39 or 40 (depending on the source) inmates were put to death inside the structure. All of the executions, save one, were conducted in the state's gas chamber where the sealed unit was filled with cyanide gas. The sole exception was the prison's last execution on January 26, 1989.

this is hokum, he's 15, he's about 10 seconds away from crudely beheading this chicken with a 99-cent store steak knife, its vocal chords were still intact after he took its head off so it screamed and writhed quite a bit. and then we ate it. sean has the video.
Picketers protesting the pending execution of Willie McGee pass the White House in Washington, D.C. sometime in the winter/spring of 1951.
McGee, charged with raping a white woman in Missisissippi in November 1945, was executed two days later despite a six-year campaign by the Civil Rights Congress that involved protests and legal maneuvering that resulted in two re-trials and numerous postponements.
McGee wrote to his wife the night before his execution, “Tell the people the real reason they are going to take my life is to keep the Negro down.... They can't do this if you and the children keep on fighting. Never forget to tell them why they killed their daddy. I know you won't fail me. Tell the people to keep on fighting. Your truly husband, Will McGee.
McGee was executed May 8, 1951.

Anti-execution rally in Sydney
From: AAP
December 01, 2005
WHEN convicted drug smuggler Van Tuong Nguyen dies tomorrow the barbaric practice of the death penalty must die with him, a prayer vigil in Sydney has been told.
About 1000 Sydneysiders gathered at Martin Place tonight in sombre protest over the imminent hanging of the 25-year-old Melbourne salesman.
Calling for an end to capital punishment, Amnesty International's Tim Goodwin said the organisation would continue fighting the death penalty in Nguyen's memory.
"It is ineffective, it is dangerous, it is extreme and it is the most barbaric, brutalising punishment," Mr Goodwin told the gathering.
Tears were shed as Reverend Bill Cruise, from the Exodus Foundation, said Australians would lose a brother at dawn tomorrow, when Nguyen is executed by Singaporean authorities for trying to smuggle almost 400 grams of heroin through Changi Airport in December 2002.
"We are all brothers and sisters to each other. When one of us dies we all die," he said.

"One of us is going to be murdered in the most brutal and callous way possible."
Cameron Murphy, from the Council of Civil Liberties, said hundreds of Australians had worked tirelessly in a bid to save Nguyen.
"But every legal avenue has been exhausted," he said.
"People in power have refused to make the decisions they should have ... I don't think our politicians have done enough. The message from our government has been ambiguous."
It was time for politicians to make a stand and ensure no more Australians met Nguyen's fate, Mr Murphy said.
"They need to do more in the region to ensure that we don't allow countries like Singapore to continue to engage in this barbaric act," he said.
"It is absolutely unacceptable, it is uncalled for, it is disproportionate and it must end here and now."
In Melbourne 300 people walked from Federation Square to the Queen Victoria Gardens as part of an Amnesty International candelight vigil.
There were no speakers at the Melbourne vigil, but prayers were held and lit candles were placed in the garden's pond.
Execution Dock was near the shoreline at Wapping and was used for over 400 years to execute pirates, smugglers and mutineers. Captain William Kidd is probably the most famous pirate to meet his death there in 1701. His corpse was put into a gibbet, a metal framed cage, and was left hanging at Tilbury Docks for 3 years. With the last execution in 1830, the exact location of Execution Dock is not known today but it’s claimed to be in the area where two pubs stand, the Prospect of Whitby and the Town of Ramsgate with the latter being the most likely. Round the back of the Prospect of Whitby there is a gallows with a noose hanging from it commemorating the location of Execution Dock.
