Murderers in prison await doom on gallows days away
The state prison hosts Jerry Duggins and Ben Springs in adjoining cells. Duggins, a triple murderer of Mrs Ramsey and her two children, faces execution on July 8. Springs, to die July 1, killed Jease Case amid marital jealousy. Both remain calm, writing few letters, and freely discuss their crimes as guards watch.
