How they prepare someone who is going to be executed by the electric chair

Every time it really depends on a state and a prison where the inmate is executed. Basically there is a very similar scenario for all of them.

Say goodbye

  • a few hours before execution an inmate writes his “Good Bye” letter
  • he is allowed to have his last phone call (depends on him to whom he cals)
  • he is asked what should be the last meal he wants to eat and the cook prepares it for him

Process of preparation

After eating inmate's last meal, he has to take a shower. Guards check all parts of his body.

Then they help him to wear an adult diaper. It’s very important because during an execution inmates often urinate, defecate or ejaculate.

Then the inmate must dress into a uniform. Colour of this uniform depends on a prison but every time it’s just one colour uniform.

Depends on a prison, the inmate is asked if he want some socks to protect his feet walking to the execution. But mostly it’s not important and the inmate is lead in the electric chair barefoot without any shoes and socks. If he has some, guards will take them off as he will be strapped to the chair.

After dressing, guards shave inmate's head and one of his ankles must be prepared for an electrode. So is his head, so there can’t be anything that could slow electric circuit.

After this process guards take the inmate into an execution room and the inmate is executed.

The Quiet 25-Year Long Genocide That Destroyed The Congolese People

1 OF 25 DARK HISTORY NEXT LIST African colonialism is replete with stories of mass elimination and horrific acts of aggression committed in the name of European imperialism. The  Congo Free State  history is not unique in that regard, but it is one of the worst, yet  lesser-known, exterminations  in history. The Congo Free State was formed in 1885 after Belgian King Leopold II, one of the  cruelest leaders in history , convinced his European peers that he should be in charge of a territory over 70 times the size of his own country. Leopold promised that he would civilize the Congo while also exploiting its natural resources and trading with the region.  However, the civilization that Leopold had in mind was a grotesque vision that ended in human tragedy. The Europeans forced the Africans to work without pay, justifying their actions by claiming that the labor was in exchange for  civilizing the natives . Far from creating the t...

Naked Jewish women from the Mizocz ghetto wait in a line before their execution by the German Order Police with the assistance of Ukrainian auxiliaries, 1942. They are carrying their children Literally to the grave. Damn

Naked Jewish women from the Mizocz ghetto wait in a line before their execution by the German Order Police with the assistance of Ukrainian auxiliaries, 1942. They are carrying their children Literally to the grave. Damn. Between East and West Germany, the west was much more Nazi. Prominent Nazis made a concerted effort toward the end of the war to surrender to the Western allies who would treat them better, and were then incorporated into government and military command. You didn't have people like Adolf Heusinger, Franz Halder, or Hans Speidel running around in East Germany. You didn't have leadership like Adenauer pushing to halt denazification in East Germany. Saying all the nazis "switched hats and went to communist East Germany" is like saying males produce estrogen. Sure they do a tiny bit, but is that really the gender you associate with estrogen? One of the facts that I learned about the Holocaust from my grandfather that has stuck with me even up throug...

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps. The accounts that rap£ or prostitution was common, Were the guards were given "free reign" over the prisoners given view of them as subhuman The Nazis sort of developed a network of state-controlled brothels during the war. This included both the civilian and military brothels. The Nazis even set up brothels for the forced labor inmates that helped with the German war effort as incentives for higher production from prisoners in camps. Back then these brothels were suppose to serving several needs. For the soldiers that were far away from home, the Nazis thought that having these brothels would reduce the possibility of rape in occupied lands and reducing the sexual relations with impure local women or forced laborer's, as well. Heck, the Nazis tried to use these brothel women to cure homosexuality as a treatment with male prisoners that were gay. Regular German women were exempt from serving in these b...

The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other

 The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other Steady on. Nearly all concentration camps were single-sex, and at those that held both men and women the sexes were usually kept separate, though at Auschwitz III (Monowitz) and possibly also some other sub-camps they worked together. At extermination camps (where the sexes were not separated) most of the prisoners were killed within 24 hours of arrival. Prisoners did not have privacy. Remember that at the time most people had a horror of same-sex relations, especially between men. However, some Kapos and even guards forced prisoners to have sex with them. In Night Elie Wiesel relates how he found his Kapo having sex with a female prisoner, and he (Wiesel) was given 25 lashes for finding them having sex.* In the Women’s Camp at least one guard forced another woman to have sex with her, and at many camps there was a piepel (camp bum boy). *He also describes the hanging of the piepel of a Blockältester ( ‘block senior’). ...
