  6. Bartorilla confirmed that Michael Mohn was an employee of the #FederalGovernment & said police would look into the graphic video as part of the case against the son. He said he was unable to confirm whether the #beheading was the cause of Michael Mohn’s death, declining to comment on the video further out of respect for his family.

  7. #Hamas #terrorists massacred at least 40 #babies and young #children before #beheading some of them and gunning down their #families in a small #kibbutz in #Israel.

    Some 70 Hamas terrorists wielding #guns and #grenades stormed the usually quiet Kfar Aza kibbutz in southern Israel, killing anyone — men, women and children — they saw.

  8. #FuneralFactFriday: Joseph-Ignace Guillotin
    Born May 28, 1738 (Saintes, France)
    Died March 26 1814 (not executed)
    Buried: Pere Lachaise Cemetery

    Many assume that Monsieur Guillotin invented the guillotine. He did not!

    He was actually a physician who OPPOSED the death penalty. Executions at that time were gruesome and prolonged: axes and swords (reserved for nobility) often took several blows, hanging (for commoners) relied on lengthy asphyxiation rather than instantly breaking the neck, and it was highly unpleasant to be boiled, dismembered, broken on a Catherine Wheel, or burned at the stake. His attempts to abolish capital punishment failed, so he instead proposed a more humane method: fast and painless decapitation by simple mechanism.

    Guillotin wrote a six point proposal to encourage a fairer system (it also discouraged crowds from hungrily watching public executions by making them boring):

    1) All punishments for the same class of crime shall be the same, regardless of the criminal (i.e., there would be no privilege for the nobility)

    2) When the death sentence is applied, it will be by decapitation, carried out by a machine

    3) The family of the guilty party will not suffer any legal discrimination

    4) It will be illegal to anyone to reproach the guilty party's family about his/her punishment

    5) The property of the convicted shall not be confiscated

    6) The bodies of those executed shall be returned to the family if so requested

    His proposals were accepted, becoming law in 1792. The beheading device was invented by the King's physician (Antoine Louis) and a German engineer (Tobias Schmidt). Use of the guillotine in France continued until its abolition in 1981, with the last execution having been performed in 1977.

    A letter published in 1795 cast doubt on the effectiveness of the guillotine. It claimed that victims survived for several minutes after being beheaded, though the only evidence is anecdotal & not supported by medical science. Unfortunately, Guillotin suffered knowing that rumor & regretted sharing his name with the device.

  13. Ok folks. #Russians posted a video of the #beheading of a #Ukrainian #POW. This is what we are dealing with. Nope, will not post it…it’s on twitter, telegram and other places.

    It is a war crime, one of many.

    If you decide to watch it…do so knowing this is vicarious trauma.
