1:24:01
he accepted it with resignation.
1:24:04
Like sort of a relief.
1:24:06
From confessing to all the crimes.
1:24:09
The real ones, as well as those
1:24:12
I think were products of his fantasy.
1:24:15
He was taken
to the firing squad at dawn.
1:24:18
Among those present:
his defense lawyer,
1:24:21
the judge who sentenced him,
1:24:24
a priest...
1:24:25
although he didn't ask for one...
1:24:28
and a firing squad of 10 soldiers.
1:24:32
Only half of them
1:24:35
fired real bullets.
1:24:37
The others shot blanks.
1:24:39
That way,
1:24:40
no one knew who fired
the fatal shot.
1:24:45
I was present at the firing
1:24:47
of the rifles.
1:24:49
He collapsed
1:24:51
onto the ground.
1:24:53
The squad leader approached him.
1:24:56
With a pistol...
1:24:58
as was the custom
of this kind of execution...
1:25:01
He fired the ''coup de grace''.
