    I’m not sure whether this was widespread, but I was on holiday once and visited an old prison. The tour guide said that the executioners were prosecuted after each hanging. Even though it was for the state, murder is still illegal. The judge would accept the guilty plea and order the executioner to pay a penny fine. I thought that was strange.
