A real prison when they treated inmates as adults

When I was a child when ever they used the electric chair! Our lights would cut off! Richmond would lie and say that wasn’t causing it but it did! It basically traumatized me because I would know what was happening! I didn’t know that the people did something wrong! I thought they were frying them for nothing!

I believe they're wrong about the chair being constructed by inmates. Almost every prison says that but it usually isn't true, it's something that gets handed down. The chair (electrical equipment, chair and all), was actually designed and constructed by a New Jersey man named Carl Adams. Adams built the electric chairs for New Jersey, Virginia and South Carolina. The chairs themselves were built by a company called the Trenton Pattern Works, back in the early 1900s. There was a little controversy when Adams installed the chair in VA, back in 1908, because he got a third of the balance up-front, another third when he delivered the equipment, he got $500 for installing and was supposed to get the remaining balance upon completion of the first execution. However, the state of VA didn't execute anyone for a few months, which left Adams in a bind, as he was a small businessman who went out of pocket for the items needed. The total cost of the electric chair in 1908 was $3,800.

Never TOO LATE to learn.

I worked there as a Correctional Officer in 1979. The things I’d see would never get boring. J P Mitchell was the warden then too.

I wonder how the black guard is doing today. Good I hope, seems like a good man.

Banky pound bought me here 🥊🥊🥊

if everything in this world was free how many people would still be in prison.

I find it hysterical how these days inmates complain about how they're treated and how bad prison is, it's prison, it's supposed to suck! Back when this prison was in use, I'm sure it was much worse. Prison is a deterrent just as much it is a punishment, if it was nice and fun, what would be the point?

My family’s Dr worked as prison Dr for 40 years

The mess hall wasn't for eating it was for shiting! 💩

I wonder these folks are now,if any were ever able to come back to society and become successful in the community???

2x55 seconds is absolutely crazy!

If I was facing Virginia's electric chair I wouldn't fight it know that I'm going to lose

I don’t have no respect for ah black man that works in any typa law enforcement or fought in any war after the civil war, and in 50/50 on that. The way America had and has treated us i don’t think i could stand and fight with no pilgrims. And I’m not an racist person. But em pilgrims have treated the human race in general so messed up over the years its a shame. So any black man or woman that teams up with em in any capacity to oppress why you’re the lowest of em all and your ancestors are flip’n over in their graves. (MY PERSONAL OPINION)

Shouts to Banky for making me look this shit up. #TBP

As bad as these old dungeons seem, I’d take it over these modern, sterile panopticons any day.

Jerry Givens(shown in this video) died recently from the effects of the COVID virus. Virginia's official executioner for 17 years and 62 dead criminals. He was an outspoken critic of all that he did in later years. Quite a guy...wish I had met him, the stories he could tell.
