== Incarceration and Execution == 
On the morning of the 29th of November she was served her final meal of a Wendy's Chickenburger and Diet Coke. She was very distressed and suffering from lack of sleep, having difficulty eating. At 7:30am, after praying with the chaplain for some time she was restrained and lead from her cell by the hangwoman and two wardresses to the death cell where the gallows had been assembled. 
She hesitated on seeing the gallows, needing some encouraging from the wardresses, but then bravely climbed the steps. In her final statement she confessed and expressed remorse for her crimes, asked for forgiveness from the families of the victims, and that her newborn daughter not be judged for her sins. 
She did not struggle as the straps were buckled around her legs and the black hood pulled over her head. Whimpering softly, she visibly trembled as the noose was adjusted around her neck, then a moment later the trap sprung open and Carla Christisen plunged to her death. The time was 7:38 am
