Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

Born-again Christian Stewart said he elected to die in the electric chair as opposed to lethal injection because death row inmates choosing lethal injection must be strapped to a gurney with their arms outstretched in the same manner that Jesus died on a cross. "They can shoot me, hang me, or do what they want to but I won't die with my arms outstretched, you know, like the son of God."
(23 September 1998)

Jayne Michelle MacDonald is hammered and stabbed to death by serial killer Peter Sutcliffe aka The Yorkshire Ripper at the age of 17 in Reginald Street, Leeds, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom.

"When I saw in the papers that MacDonald was so young and not a prostitute, I felt like someone inhuman and I realised that it was a devil driving me against my will and that I was a beast."
