Execution by firing squad
Execution by firing squad is a method of
capital punishment, particularly common in times of war. The firing
squad is generally composed of several
soldiers or
peace officers. The method of execution requires all members of the group to fire simultaneously, thus preventing both disruption of the process by a single member and identification of the member who fired the lethal shot. The condemned is typically
blindfolded or
hooded, as well as restrained.
Executions can be carried out with the condemned either standing or sitting.
