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.

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.

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.
The Execution platform at Alanya Fortress gave the victim a 700 meter bounce to the sea. It was not possible to avoid the rocky sides or to halt before the bottom. Alanya_02

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.

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.

LOC Title: Execution of the conspirators -- the drop
Date: July 7, 1865
Photographer: Alexander Gardner (1821 - 1882)
Notes: Civil War photographers Alexander Gardner and Timothy O'Sullivan were the only ones allowed to photograph the execution of the "Lincoln Conspirators". For this shot they used a multi-lens camera and shortly after, Stereo Card No. 982 "The Drop" was on sale to the public, allowing anyone to see the moment the "trap was sprung" in three-dimensional stereo, using the stereoscopic viewers of the day. Note the 3 cent Civil War tax stamp on the reverse. -PT
