With all of the emotions, suicides and murders within the walls for 168 years, it is not surprising! The prison held 4,900 inmates at its peak, meaning some cells held 8-10 people at a time. 39 individuals were gassed there and the last one was executed by lethal injection. Out of the 40 who were put to death there was one female named Bonnie Heady. https://www.missouripentours.com/ https://www.columbiamissourian.com/news/state_news/buried-prison-cells-unearthed-at-state-penitentiary-are-reminders-of-brutality/article_e8c7db66-fc3d-11ea-ad44-2b9ebcc54c9e.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONr5EKxOZSA&list=TLPQMTAwNzIwMjTLnHJaOGrodg&index=2 https://www.facebook.com/missouripentours https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzaxIWpzbWI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgJ0mYVKpKQ (VR Headset!!)
