Gary Gilmore  

Definición

  • Gary Gilmore was the first person in the United States to be executed after the U.S. Supreme Court's moratorium on capital punishment was established by Furman v. Georgia (1972) and then lifted in a series of cases highlighted by Gregg v. Georgia (1976). Partly as a result of this, and because of the publication of Norman Mailer's (1979) book The Executioner's Song, Gilmore attained status as a minor celebrity in the public eye. [Source: Encyclopedia of Prisons & Correctional Facilities; Gilmore, Gary]
