Execution of Justice
Execution of Justice is an ensemble play by Emily Mann chronicling the case of Dan White, who assassinated San Francisco mayor George Moscone and openly gay city supervisor Harvey Milk in November 1978. The play was originally commissioned by the Eureka Theater Company and had an early production by Arena Stage in their 1984/1985 season.
It opened on Broadway on March 13, 1986 with John Spencer playing Dan White and a cast that included Wesley Snipes, Stanley Tucci, Mary McDonnell, and Earle Hyman. The set was designed by Ming Cho Lee, costumes by Jennifer von Mayrhauser, lighting by Pat Collins.
In 1999, the play was adapted for television and was awarded the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) Media Award for Outstanding TV Movie in 2000. It is also the winner of the HBO New Plays USA award, the Helen Hayes Award, the Bay Area Critics Circle Award, and it was nominated for a Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Award.
In the play, the trial itself is on trial in the court of theater and is found guilty of a miscarriage of justice, parallelling the actual case which resulted in White being convicted of a lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter, rather than two counts of first-degree murder, and sentenced to less than eight years. The play references the urban legend that White's defense strategy was primarily the so-called "Twinkie defense" — painting his junk food consumption as a significant or even in some versions the sole cause of his actions.

The Execution of Justice
The Execution of Justice (German: Justiz) is a 1985 novel by the Swiss writer Friedrich Dürrenmatt. It tells the story of an attorney who is tasked to reinvestigate a man sentenced for murder. The book criticises elements of the legal system and ponders on the nature of justice. It was adapted into the 1993 film Justice, directed by Hans W. Geißendörfer.
Reception
Ursula Hegi reviewed the book in the Los Angeles Times: "Durrenmatt focuses more on politics than on the characters who play bizarre roles in the machinery of Swiss justice. He is highly critical of his country that 'withdrew from history when it went into big business. . . . Our country's ideals were always practical ones . . . an immoral but healthy way of life.' He looks at pompous manners and traditions, at corruption so smooth that it has worked its way into everyday life." Hegle wrote about the plot: "As the murder is reinvestigated, the act of violence is removed from theory, and only the theory is dealt with--a clean, passionless residue that has less and less to do with the crime. And this is what happens to justice too--it becomes detached from its source, loses its reason for being and exhausts itself in a game." The critic also wrote: "Despite his focus on politics, Durrenmatt has the gift to create unforgettable characters within a few lines".

The BRUTAL Execution Of General Yamashita - The Tiger Of Malaya
Throughout the Second World War there were many war crimes committed by the Japanese Army. It's estimated that the Japanese Army were responsible for the deaths of between 3-14 million civilians and Prisoners of War during the conflict, and they treated people terribly. One man who was executed after the war for his alleged involvement in Japanese War Crimes was General Yamashita, a man who is considered one of the better Japanese generals. Yamashita's involvement in war crimes and crimes against humanity is disputed, and it was known that he did punish those who committed needless atrocities. But Yamashita was seen as a butcher, and as a man who's soldiers were feral and barbaric slaughters and murderers. For the fact he could not allegedly control his soldiers, he was sentenced to death...

In the Song Dynasty, Chen Shimei (陈世美) was a poor scholar studying for the imperial examinations. Chen Shimei was married to Qin Xianglian (秦香蓮), who took care of him, his parents, and their children so Chen Shimei had time to study.
.
When the time for the examinations came, Shimei went to the capital to take them, leaving Xianglian and their children behind. He did not return. In the meantime, a famine hit the country and killed their parents. With nothing left in the countryside, Xianglian and the children traveled to the capital to look for Shimei.
.
It turned out that Shimei had placed first in the examinations and had been awarded an official post as a result. The Emperor favored him, and offered to marry his sister to Shimei. Although Shimei was already married, he coveted wealth and power; he kept his previous marriage a secret and married the princess, hoping to forget about Xianglian and their children.
.
This put Shimei in a bind when Xianglian came to the capital to look for him. Still, aware that his position was in danger plus that he had lied to the Emperor to marry the princess, Shimei not only claimed to not know Xianglian and their children, but also secretly ordered his bodyguard Han Qi (韩琪) to murder them.
.
Han Qi could not bring himself to kill them. Caught between his conscience and duty, Han Qi committed suicide in Sanguantang (三官堂). After burying Han Qi, Xianglian then approached Bao Zheng to force Shimei to recognize her.
.
When the princess heard of the impending execution, she went with her mother, the Empress Dowager, to pressure Bao Zheng to stop the execution. When the Empress Dowager pointed out that the penalty for defying an imperial edict was also death, Bao Zheng took off his official headwear and declared that Shimei should be executed first before himself. Shimei was executed. Afterwards, peasants throughout the country gave Bao Zheng the honorific "Justice Bao" (包青天).

"The death sentences issued today against 30 academics and political opponents in the Houthis' Specialized Criminal Court are nothing but a mockery of justice and an affirmation of the judiciary's transformation into a tool of repression rather than an application of justice," Amnesty International said in a statement.

George Junius Stinney Jr. (October 21, 1929 – June 16, 1944) was an African-American youth who at a flawed trial was convicted at age 14 of murder in 1944 in his home town of Alcolu, South Carolina. He was the youngest person in the United States in the 20th-century to be sentenced to death and to be executed.[1]
Stinney was convicted in 1944 in a one-day trial[2] of the first-degree murder of two white girls: 11-year-old Betty June Binnicker and 8-year-old Mary Emma Thames. After being arrested, Stinney was said to have confessed to the crime.[3][4] There was no written record of his confession apart from notes provided by an investigating deputy,[5] and no transcript of the brief trial. He was executed by electric chair.
Since Stinney's conviction and execution, the question of his guilt, the validity of his reported confession, and the judicial process leading to his execution have been extensively criticized.[6]
A group of lawyers and activists investigated the Stinney case on behalf of his family. In 2013 the family petitioned for a new trial. On December 17, 2014, his conviction was posthumously vacated 70 years after his execution, because the circuit court judge ruled that he had not been given a fair trial; he had no effective defense and his Sixth Amendment rights had been violated.[7][8] The judgment noted that while Stinney may in fact have committed the crime, the prosecution and trial were fundamentally flawed.

But Yamashita was seen as a butcher, and as a man who's soldiers were feral and barbaric slaughters and murderers. For the fact he could not allegedly control his soldiers, he was sentenced to death by the Americans at the end of World War 2. He was executed based on command principle, that he was in command so therefore was to blame. On a gallows inside of a prison in Manila, a city where it's believed 100,000 civilians died, General Yamashita was executed.

When the time for the examinations came, Shimei went to the capital to take them, leaving Xianglian and their children behind. He did not return. In the meantime, a famine hit the country and killed their parents. With nothing left in the countryside, Xianglian and the children traveled to the capital to look for Shimei.
.
It turned out that Shimei had placed first in the examinations and had been awarded an official post as a result. The Emperor favored him, and offered to marry his sister to Shimei. Although Shimei was already married, he coveted wealth and power; he kept his previous marriage a secret and married the princess, hoping to forget about Xianglian and their children.
.
This put Shimei in a bind when Xianglian came to the capital to look for him. Still, aware that his position was in danger plus that he had lied to the Emperor to marry the princess, Shimei not only claimed to not know Xianglian and their children, but also secretly ordered his bodyguard Han Qi (韩琪) to murder them.
.
Han Qi could not bring himself to kill them. Caught between his conscience and duty, Han Qi committed suicide in Sanguantang (三官堂). After burying Han Qi, Xianglian then approached Bao Zheng to force Shimei to recognize her.
.
When the princess heard of the impending execution, she went with her mother, the Empress Dowager, to pressure Bao Zheng to stop the execution. When the Empress Dowager pointed out that the penalty for defying an imperial edict was also death, Bao Zheng took off his official headwear and declared that Shimei should be executed first before himself. Shimei was executed. Afterwards, peasants throughout the country gave Bao Zheng the honorific "Justice Bao" (包青天).

Human Rights Convictions Against the Houthi Militia After Death Sentences to 30 Civilians Amnesty International: The death sentences in the Houthi court are a mockery of justice and an affirmation of the judiciary's transformation into a tool of repression
SAM Organization for Rights and Freedoms condemned the issuance of the Criminal Court in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, which is under the control of the Houthis, to death sentence for 30 detainees in the so-called "case of the 36", Nasr Al-Salami and others. "Sam", based in Geneva, said, "It learned about the issuance of a death sentence for 30 people, and that the ruling issued by the Houthi court is illegal, as it was issued by a court that lost its judicial capacity under a decision issued by the Supreme Judicial Council, as well as a violation of the principles of trial fair." "The death sentences issued today against 30 academics and political opponents in the Houthis' Specialized Criminal Court are nothing but a mockery of justice and an affirmation of the judiciary's transformation into a tool of repression rather than an application of justice," Amnesty International said in a statement.

George Junius Stinney Jr. (October 21, 1929 – June 16, 1944) was an African-American youth who at a flawed trial was convicted at age 14 of murder in 1944 in his home town of Alcolu, South Carolina. He was the youngest person in the United States in the 20th-century to be sentenced to death and to be executed.[1]
Stinney was convicted in 1944 in a one-day trial[2] of the first-degree murder of two white girls: 11-year-old Betty June Binnicker and 8-year-old Mary Emma Thames. After being arrested, Stinney was said to have confessed to the crime.[3][4] There was no written record of his confession apart from notes provided by an investigating deputy,[5] and no transcript of the brief trial. He was executed by electric chair.
Since Stinney's conviction and execution, the question of his guilt, the validity of his reported confession, and the judicial process leading to his execution have been extensively criticized.[6]
A group of lawyers and activists investigated the Stinney case on behalf of his family. In 2013 the family petitioned for a new trial. On December 17, 2014, his conviction was posthumously vacated 70 years after his execution, because the circuit court judge ruled that he had not been given a fair trial; he had no effective defense and his Sixth Amendment rights had been violated.[7][8] The judgment noted that while Stinney may in fact have committed the crime, the prosecution and trial were fundamentally flawed.

Oklahoma has the highest number of executions per capita of any state in the US. It’s executed 116 people over the last 50 years. We talked to an inmate about what it’s like to be sentenced to death, and to his brother about what it’s like to watch a loved one be executed.

Throughout the Second World War there were many war crimes committed by the Japanese Army. It's estimated that the Japanese Army were responsible for the deaths of between 3-14 million civilians and Prisoners of War during the conflict, and they treated people terribly. One man who was executed after the war for his alleged involvement in Japanese War Crimes was General Yamashita, a man who is considered one of the better Japanese generals. Yamashita's involvement in war crimes and crimes against humanity is disputed, and it was known that he did punish those who committed needless atrocities.
But Yamashita was seen as a butcher, and as a man who's soldiers were feral and barbaric slaughters and murderers. For the fact he could not allegedly control his soldiers, he was sentenced to death by the Americans at the end of World War 2. He was executed based on command principle, that he was in command so therefore was to blame. On a gallows inside of a prison in Manila, a city where it's believed 100,000 civilians died, General Yamashita was executed.
