Description

What's something that you do every 2 weeks? For Michelle Lyons, over a span of 12 years, she watched someone get executed every two weeks in Texas. What are inmates like on their last day alive? Did she have misgivings watching people take their last breath? And what do people who are strapped to the gurney actually say for their final statements?     ----   Power Corrupts is written and narrated by Brian Klaas. The executive producer and sound editor is George McDonagh.
