Time to bring back public hangings
The last public hanging in Florida was in my county seat, on the courthouse lawn, around 1917 +/- or so.
Newspaper accounts of the time called it a ‘fair-like atmosphere’ people came from 50 miles away, with their CHILDREN, with picnic lunches, food vendors, etc.................
30 years too late................
“Time to bring back public hangings”
Or something.
Maybe televise the posting of bond?
I mean — hey — it’s damned hard to get a good sight picture through those tine jailhouse windows.
