Sing Sing Death House
"Sing Sing Death House" refers to the execution chamber located within the Sing Sing Correctional Facility, a maximum-security prison in Ossining, New York. This facility has been operational since 1826 and is known for housing some of the most notorious criminals in American history. The Death House was specifically designed for carrying out capital punishment, primarily through the electric chair.
The Death House has a significant historical context, as it was the site of numerous executions from the early 20th century until the death penalty was abolished in New York in 2007. It symbolizes the broader debates surrounding the death penalty and criminal justice in the United States.
