Gary Mark Gilmore ( December 4, 1940 – January 17, 1977) was a career criminal who was the first person legally executed in the United States after the death penalty was reinstated in 1976. Gilmore was convicted of killing Ben Bushnell, a motel manager, in Provo, Utah on July 20, 1976; he had also been charged with murdering a gas station employee in Orem, Utah, the previous day, but that case never went to trial apparently because there were no witnesses to the first killing. Gilmore's trial was held from October 5 to October 7, 1976 which he was quickly convicted of the murder, mostly because there was no defense on his part. The jury also recommended the death penalty for Gilmore due to the special circumstances to the crime. Because Utah then had two methods of execution, firing squad or death by hanging, Gilmore was given a choice, in which he replied, "I'd prefer to be shot." ...more on Wikipedia about "Gary Gilmore"

Gary Lee Roll (born 1953, died August 30, 2000) was executed by lethal injection in the state of Missouri. He was convicted of the murders of 3 members of the Sheper family in Cape Girardeau, Missouri during a robbery in 1992. Roll shot the mother and one son with his pistol and another the other stabbed with a hunting knife. The robbers made off with approx 12 ounces of marijuana and $214 cash. A taped conversation where Roll admitted to the murders was turned into police by an accomplice. He was arrested in November 1992, plead guilty of all counts, and was sentenced to death in November 1993. His attorneys filed few appeals of his sentance and he did not actively seek to avoid his death sentance. He reportedly had chronic jaw pain since an injury incurred while serving in the United States military and was healing from breaking his leg after a fall from his roof and consumed recreational drugs to lessen the pain. Roll was reportedly under the influence of alcohol, marijuana, and 4 to 6 "hits" of LSD at the time of his crimes. It has been theorized that when faced with a decision between life in prison with pain and no drugs and death, Roll preferred his death sentance. He was executed on his originally scheduled date of August 30, 2000. ...more on Wikipedia about "Gary Lee Roll"
