About this listen
On July 2, 1778, Bathsheba Spooner became the first woman executed in the newly independent United States of America. Her death by hanging in Worcester, Massachusetts, marked a dark chapter in Revolutionary War-era justice and sparked debates about capital punishment, pregnancy, and the rights of the accused that would echo through American legal history for generations to come.
