1900: The Pensacola Inmate Who Was Hanged Twice
Saturday, August 7
1900: The Pensacola Inmate Who Was Hanged Twice  (Meetings)
10:00 am
Online
One of Pensacola's strangest executions was the day that the authorities had to hang a man twice for murder. Not only did he hang twice but as it turns out he was responsible for building his own scaffolding platform for the hanging. When he was finished with the building he asked if he could use it on another inmate to see if it worked! Presented by Marc Ward.
