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

Gooch was the first and only person hanged for a non-murdering kidnapping under the Lindbergh Law. Oklahoma’s executioner Richard Earnest Owen was an old hand with his state’s electric chair, but the federal execution method was hanging, which Owen had never before performed (and never would again). Gooch took 15 minutes to strangle at the end of the rope for an audience of about 300.
