I actually live in Utah and gary Gilmore was a very hot topic in my classes not to long agao. If you want to talk to a man who spent the last hours with Gary Gilmore his name is Kay Gillispie and he is a Sociologist at Weber State University in Ogden, Utah.The phone number to the college is (801) 626-6000. Just ask for Kay Gillispie and they will conect you to his office. His email is at weber.edu and I think its kgillispie@weber.edu. Good luck. I can tell you that Gary Gilmore refused to file anymore appeals because he just wanted to be executed and he was shot by the firing squad at his request.

I have talked to Dr. Gillispie and he said he would be very happy to tell you anything you wanted to know about Gary Gilmore.
