9. Lincoln’s Assassinator’s Execution
Back to talking about President Lincoln, his assassin John Wilkes Booth and his ten accomplices were eventually tracked down and publically hung.

The violent plan they had was inexcusable, but the public hanging is quite shocking and surprisingly, it was photographed.
