OverviewExecution by hanging is the kind of death that sends shivers down the spine. The waiting of the doomed prisoner, the scrape of a key in the lock, the roughly bound hands, the hood drawn over the face, the lever being released and then the snap of the spine as the body drops. The UK banned hanging in the 1960's but in that century, it was used to execute its killers. And many of them were women. The first in a two-part series, Women Who Hanged takes a look at the stories of three of the last six women to be hanged in Britain. Motives, methods, age, occupation...they were all very different. But in this they were the same. These women were all killers and all ultimately took that last walk to the long drop.
