Scope and Content Note
This series consists of 250 files for inmates executed for capital crimes. These are not complete case files of inmates, but administrative files pertinent to their actual executions. Each file typically contains identifying documents; correspondence; blotter records; notices of stays and respites of execution; copies of court orders; and copies of other legal documents.
Files may also contain newspaper clippings concerning the inmate's criminal offense, trial, and subsequent execution; carbon copies of the inmate's social and criminal history narratives; and other administrative records of the inmate's incarceration (visitation records, etc.). Almost all case files document executions carried out by electrocution at Sing Sing Prison; scattered files relate to inmates executed in other states.
Related Material
B0145 Case Files of Inmates Sentenced to Electrocution, generally contains more detailed information for some of the same inmates found in this series. More inmates, however, are represented in this series.
Custodial History
These records were apparently created for administrative purposes by the Commissioner's Office of the Dept. of Correction.
Access Restrictions
Summary information on adult inmates is disclosable under law. State Archives staff will review records containing probation, parole, medical, and juvenile criminal history data and disclose information pursuant to the Freedom of Information Law and Personal Privacy Protection Law. The identity of victims of sex crimes is not disclosable. Unless a specific law forbids disclosure indefinitely, all records must be disclosed after 75 years.
