What was the Fate of Leon F. Czolgosz?

Answer 1

On August 31, 1901 he moved to Buffalo, New York and rented a room near the site of the Pan-American Exposition.

On September 6, Czolgosz went to the exposition with a pistol in his pocket, concealed in a handkerchief. McKinley had been standing in a receiving line outside of the Temple of Music greeting the public for several minutes when Czolgosz reached the front of the line. The President thrust out his hand. Czolgosz slapped it aside and shot McKinley twice at point-blank range, close enough to leave powder burns on the President's vest. The time was 4:07 p.m. Members of McKinley's security team as well as citizens in the crowd immediately subdued Czolgosz, beating him so severely it was initially thought he might not live to stand trial.[3] McKinley would die from his wounds on September 14.

The gun used by Czolgosz was a .32 caliber Iver-Johnson "Safety Automatic" revolver, serial number 463344. Czolgosz had bought it for $4.50 on September 2, 1901. It is currently on display at the Pan-American Exposition exhibit of the Erie County Historical Society in Buffalo.

Czolgosz was convicted and sentenced to death on September 23, in a brief trial that lasted eight and a half hours from jury selection to verdict.

Czolgosz was found guilty and executed by electrocution, by three jolts at 1700 volts each, on October 29, 1901, in Auburn prison in Auburn, New York. His last words were "I killed the President because he was the enemy of the good people—the good working people. I am not sorry for my crime." As the prison guards strapped him into the chair, however, he did say through clenched teeth, "I am sorry I could not see my father."
