#OTD 1901 in #Buffalo NY , while visiting the Pan-American Exposition and hosting a meet & greet in the #TempleofMusic , the sitting US Prez #WilliamMcKinley was assassinated by a self proclaimed #Anarchist who'd become disgruntled with his #AmercanDream after losing his job during the late 90's #EconomicPanic .
After waiting in a reception line, unemployed drifter #LeonCzolgosz pulled out a $4.50 revolver he'd recently bought and shot the President 2x at 4:07 pm.
“I done my duty,” he reportedly said as the 58 yr old #McKinley recoiled and put his hands over his wounds. A black waiter toppled the assassin, as police and soldiers and men waiting in line hit and kicked Czolgosz who was soon blood-spattered, beaten and unmoving. McKinley was half conscious and is said to have muttered “Be easy with him, boys”.
By 5:20 pm surgeons had McKinley under ether and were attempting to remove the bullets that had penetrated him. “The greatest difficulty was the great size of President McKinley’s abdomen and the amount of fat present,” the surgeon later noted.
Two days after the shooting, doctors told reporters the #RepublicanPresident and civil war #veteran was past the danger point and they were considering trying one of Edison’s new X-ray machines to help locate the remaining bullet hidden in the President's fifty-six-inch girth, but they never did.
Gangrene had reportedly set in, and the President passed on Friday, September 13th.
“I shot the president because I thought it would help the working people and for the sake of the common people. I am not sorry for my crime,” stated 28 yr old Leon Czolgosz just before he was executed on October 29th after a very speedy trial.
Auburn Prison guards plopped him in an #ElectricChair, tightened straps on his head and twelve minutes past seven, 1,700 volts of electricity coursed through Leon Czolgosz, and afterwards his corpse was unceremoniously dissolved in carbolic acid, wiping all traces of his existence from the earth.
The successor to the Presidency Teddy Roosevelt, never publicly mentioned the assassin by name, but described #anarchism as a crime against humanity itself rather than as a form of political protest.

CW: Historic execution
#OTD in 1939: Charles Sberna and Salvatore Gati are executed in the Sing Sing Prison #ElectricChair for the 1937 killing of NYPD Officer John Wilson.
Many, including Sing Sing's warden, believe Sberna to be innocent of the crime. (As the son of an anarchist-terrorist and son-in-law of a #Mafia boss of bosses, was a fair trial for Sberna even possible?)
