Context paragraphs:
Harold Lamont Otey: Harold Lamont "Walkin' Wili" Otey (August 1, 1951 – September 2, 1994) was convicted of the murder of Jane McManus.  Despite recanting his confession and maintaining his innocence for more than 15 years, Otey became the first person to be executed in Nebraska since 1976 when the death penalty was reinstated.  He was executed in 1994 by the State of Nebraska by electrocution, becoming the first person to die in Nebraska's electric chair since Charles Starkweather was executed in 1959.  Otey's final days were documented by the CBS News program "48 Hours" entitled "Death by Midnight".

Capital punishment in Australia: Capital punishment in Australia has been abolished in all jurisdictions.  Queensland abolished the death penalty in 1922.  Tasmania did the same in 1968, the federal government abolished the death penalty in 1973, with application also in the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory.  Victoria did so in 1975, South Australia in 1976, and Western Australia in 1984.  New South Wales abolished the death penalty for murder in 1955, and for all crimes in 1985.  In 2010, the federal government passed legislation prohibiting the re-establishment of capital punishment by any state or territory.  Neither the Commonwealth nor any of the states will extradite or deport a prisoner to another jurisdiction if they will face the death penalty, and police co-operation with other countries which have the death penalty has been questioned.

List of people executed in New Jersey: This is a list of people executed in New Jersey.  No one has been executed by the state of New Jersey since 1963, although a statute reinstating capital punishment for murder had been in force from 1982 until 2007.  New Jersey executed a total of 361 people from its inception to the abolition of the death penalty on December 17, 2007.  The first person executed was a slave known to history only as Tom for a rape in 1690.  The last execution was of Ralph Hudson for murder on January 22, 1963.  Of those executions, 187 occurred in the 20th century.  The last execution for a crime other than murder (or conspiracy to murder) was of Andrew Clark in 1872 for rape.  The last woman executed was Margaret Meierhoffer in 1881.  Except for a dozen slaves executed by burning in the early 18th century, executions in New Jersey were by hanging until 1906 and electrocution since then, with the exception of an execution by hanging in 1909.

Charles Coleman (murderer): Charles Troy Coleman (March 15, 1947 – September 10, 1990) was a convicted murderer executed in 1990 by lethal injection by the State of Oklahoma for the murder of John Seward.  He was convicted in 1979 of the murder of Seward, who, along with his wife, was killed by a shotgun blast in rural Muskogee County, Oklahoma, when they interrupted a robbery at a relative's house.  Coleman was executed in 1990 after almost twelve years on death row at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary.  He was put to death by the State of Oklahoma by lethal injection at the age of 43 after exhausting all appeals.  (At the time, Coleman had become friends with Gregory R. Wilhoit, now a death row exoneree, though they had argued bitterly over the death penalty.)  He became the first person to be executed in Oklahoma since the 1966 electrocution of James Donald French after the United States Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1976 and the first person in Oklahoma to be executed by lethal injection.

Trial of Dylann Roof: United States v. Roof (officially the United States of America v. Dylann Storm Roof) was a 2017 federal trial involving Dylann Roof and his role in the Charleston church shooting.  Five days after the shooting, Roof was indicted on 33 federal charges, including 12 counts of committing a hate crime against black victims.  On May 24, 2016, the Justice Department announced Roof would face the death penalty.  As he was already facing the death penalty in his state trial, Roof became the first person in U.S. history to face both a federal and state death penalty at the same time.

Gary Gilmore: Gary Mark Gilmore (December 4, 1940 – January 17, 1977) was an American criminal who gained international notoriety for demanding the implementation of his death sentence for two murders he committed in Utah.  After the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a new series of death penalty statutes in the 1976 decision "Gregg v. Georgia", he became the first person in almost ten years to be executed in the United States.  These new statutes avoided the problems under the 1972 decision in "Furman v. Georgia," which had resulted in earlier death penalty statutes being deemed as "cruel and unusual" punishment, and therefore unconstitutional.  (The Supreme Court had previously ordered all states to commute death sentences to life imprisonment after Furman v. Georgia.)  Gilmore was executed by firing squad in 1977.  His life and execution was the subject of the 1979 nonfiction novel "The Executioner's Song" by Norman Mailer, and 1982 TV film of the novel starring Tommy Lee Jones as Gilmore.

Bill Wirskye: William Hawthorne "Bill" Wirskye is a prominent Texas prosecutor who is currently the Second Assistant District Attorney in the Collin County District Attorney's Office in Collin County, Texas.  Wirskye is best known for being the lead prosecutor who tried the Kaufman County DA murders, which ultimately resulted in the death penalty for the defendant, former Justice of the Peace of Kaufman County, Eric Williams.  Before that, he was a Dallas County prosecutor for 12 years.

Noall Wootton: Noall Thurber Wootton (September 8, 1940 – April 27, 2006) was the Utah County District Attorney, in Utah, from 1974 to 1986.  During his time in that role, he is most famous for being the lead prosecutor of Gary Gilmore, the first person to be executed after the 1976 reinstatement of the death penalty.  Wootton earned his bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University in 1961 and a J.D. from the University of Utah in 1964.  Noall Wootton died at the age of 65 on April 27, 2006 due to cancer.

Catholic Church and capital punishment: The Catholic Church's position on capital punishment has varied throughout the centuries following the Church's establishment, evolving from somewhat supportive to largely apathetic to mostly anti-capital punishment.  In more recent times, the Catholic Church has generally moved away from any explicit condoning or approval of capital punishment and has instead increasingly adopted a more disapproving stance on the issue.  Modern Church figures such as Pope John Paul II, Pope Francis, and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops have in fact actively discouraged the death penalty or advocated for the out-right abolition of the death penalty.  Historically, the teaching of the Catholic Church used to categorize capital punishment as a form of "lawful slaying", a view defended by theological authorities such as Augustine and Thomas Aquinas.  Augustine felt that the death penalty was a means of deterring the wicked and protecting the innocent.  In the Middle Ages, Thomas Aquinas reaffirmed this position.  (See also Aquinas on the death penalty).  However, after the Second Vatican Council the Catholic Church has been staunchly opposed to the death penalty.

National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty: The National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty (NCADP) is a large organization dedicated to the abolition of the death penalty in the United States.  Founded in 1976 (the same year the death penalty was reinstated by the Supreme Court of the United States) by Henry Schwarzschild, the NCADP is the only fully staffed nationwide organization in the United States dedicated to the total abolition of the death penalty in the country.  It also provides extensive information regarding imminent and past executions, death penalty defendants, numbers of people executed in the U.S., as well as a detailed breakdown of the current death row population, and a list of which U.S. state and federal jurisdictions use the death penalty.
