Bruno Richard Hauptmann
He came to the electric chair and proclaimed himself an innocent man, an action accepted by a large portion of the American public. And though he knew he’d spare him a tragic end, he refused to acknowledge the crime. Nevertheless, he demanded chicken, buttered peas, French fries, olives, celery, cake, and cherries were also requested by the condemned man.
Charles Rumbaugh
For killing a jeweler during an armed robbery, Charles Rumbaugh was put on death row, but his sentence proved controversial. That is because when he committed his crime Rumbaugh was just 17 years old, and Amnesty International claimed that his execution violated international agreements. He underwent a lethal injection in 1985, at the age of 28. However, his sentence was upheld.
