电椅

早期的电椅
电椅在美国的历史和法律
  只作为次要的死刑方法
  曾采用电椅,但 现已不采用
  未曾采用电椅

电椅(Electric Chair)是美国于20世纪经常使用的一项死刑运行工具。

电椅的发明者为阿尔弗雷德·索思威克(Alfred P. Southwick),他曾受雇于爱迪生。实际上,爱迪生本人亦有参与电椅的发明计划。爱迪生参与发明电椅原本是为了打击对手的交流电公司——亦即西屋公司——为了证明交流电的危害性,最早他以狗、猫、猴子、马当成测试品,最后证明了交流电的危险性,他宣布:“交流电只适于处死待领场的狗或屠宰场的动物,还有处决死囚。”但最后,他的直流电公司还是倒闭了,因为交流电在使用上适合远距离传输、而比直流电更具竞争优势。

The execution of William Kemmler, August 6, 1890

Execution by electrocution, usually performed using an electric chair, is an execution method originating in the United States in which the condemned person is strapped to a specially built wooden chair and electrocuted through electrodes placed on the head and leg. This execution method, conceived in 1881 by a Buffalo, New York dentist named Alfred P. Southwick, was developed throughout the 1880s as a humane alternative to hanging and first used in 1890. This execution method has been used in the United States and, for a period of several decades, in the Philippines (its first use there in 1924, last in 1976).
