Execution By Firing Squad

Procedure A firing squad is normally composed of at least several shooters, all of whom are usually instructed to fire simultaneously, thus preventing both disruption of the process by one member and identification of who fired the lethal shot. To avoid disfigurement due to multiple shots to the head, the shooters are typically instructed to aim at the heart, sometimes aided by a paper or cloth target. The prisoner is typically blindfolded or Hood (headgear), hooded as well as restrained. Execution (legal), Executions can be carried out with the condemned either standing or sitting.
