So over the years we have seen a lot of changes to the way the issue of execution has been dealt with. From the way it was heralded, at the beginning of its use because of how it
stopped hangings, and allowed these executions to take place in a centralized location. To the different types of inmates that were being held in the state prison awaiting their fate, and the different problems different groups, including the Supreme Court had with the executions being done by way of the Electric Chair. And finally, the transition that was made from the electric chair to the execution method of Lethal Injection. There have always been people who have thought that capital punishment was wrong and should not be done. There are those who thought we just needed a better way to do it, and finally those who believed that they deserved whatever punishment they received. Anyway you look at it the electric chair was a very influential piece of equipment, and changed how capital punishment was viewed at the time, and how it is viewed today.
