Georgia, USA executes convicted murderer while she sings Amazing Grace 

Kelly Gissendaner, the 47 year old mother of three, who was convicted for the murder of her husband, Doug Gissendaner, in 1997, sobbed and sang Amazing Grace as she was being executed with a lethal injection at the state prison in Georgia, United Statws of America earlier today (Wednesday, September 30).

Kelly became the 16th woman to be executed in the US since the Supreme Court re-established the death penalty in 1976, and the first woman in the southern US state.

She said, “I love my children and I hope my in-laws would find some peace and happiness in my apology”.
