Cop killer Wilbert Lee Evans is executed by Old Sparky at the age of 44 in Virginia State Penitentiary, Richmond, Virginia, United States. Evans' execution became known as one of Virginia's worst. When the first 55-second jolt of electricity hit Evans, blood flowed from under the leather death mask, streamed down his chin and soaked his shirt. Bloody froth bubbled on his lower lip. Officials said the chair worked fine - Evans just had a nosebleed when he lunged against the mask. |
