Ruth's boyfriend was violent and he beat Ruth regularly. On one occasion, while Ruth was pregnant, he punched her in the stomach causing her to miscarry.<br /><br />Finally, Ruth shot her boyfriend to death outside a nightclub. She then went and confessed to the police and cooperated with the prosecutors trying to convict her. She was subsequently tried, convicted and sentenced to hang.<br /><br />Ruth was reported to be calm and in good spirits during the weeks leading up to her execution and she made no attempts to save herself. Finally on the day of her execution she smiled at the executioner when he entered the room to take her to the gallows. She continued to smile at him until he place the hood over her head.<br /><br />It would seem likely that Ruth Ellis committed, "suicide by the state". She was obviously troubled as evidenced by her ongoing relationship with an abusive man. She smiled at the executioner because she was about to escape this world and finally be relieved of her pain.Joe Vnoreply@blogger.com
