The Texas State Prison Museum has the electric chair used by Texas to execute 331 convicts. They stop using it 1964 and started using injections in 1972.
They also have a hand gun taken from Bonnie & Clyde after they were cut down by the law.
Huntsville, TX is the headquarters for the Texas Dept of Correction. There are at least six units there and several more nearby. Including the unit in Livingston (about 10 miles from the campground? that houses the 330 inmates on death row.
Looked like the shadow of death behind the electric chair.
The jail cell was very small. You really didn't want a cellmate with passion for beans.
The high lite of our day was passing through Point Blank, TX. Polulation 633. Texas has some really good names for cities and towns.
