How to use executioners in a sentence?
They might have seen the executioners in very dark colours; it was a very dark night, they only had flashlights on the prisoners, and when we were going to meet them we were falling over stones because of the dark.
I could see there was a man sitting on the ground, the executioners were lined up, they were dressed in black.
Law Professor Deborah W. Denno:
This has always been the problem throughout history: the people performing the executions, why? We don't train people to be executioners.
'It is the job of thinking people, not to be on the side of the executioners.
The man who passes the sentence should swing the sword. If you would take a man's life, you owe it to him to look into his eyes and hear his final words. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the man does not deserve to die... a ruler who hides behind paid executioners soon forgets what death is.
