Info4U - electric chair??

Electric chair was first used in 1890 in United States. Only a few states in USA are using this kind of execution as the secondary method while other states dont apply it. There are also states that used to execute people by electric chair long ago and they have stopped from using it. Then Philipines started to use it in 1924 and stopped the use of electric chair in 1976.

It is a symbol of death penalty but its use is on a decline. In the United States, several states allow the prisoners to choose either electric chair or lethal injection such as Alabama, Florida, South Carolina and Virginia.

But the most interesting fact about this electric chair is its law. In United States, a prisoner sentenced to death by electric chair, who survives 3 jolts of 15,000 volts each for 45 seconds...must be set free. How about that? Scary isnt it?
