Nathan Lee (murderer)

Nathan Lee (murderer)

Nathan Lee (d. August 31, 1923, Brazoria County, Texas) was an American murderer executed by the state of Texas via hanging.[1]

Subsequent to Lee's execution, Texas changed the method of execution to the electric chair and further mandated that all executions would take place at the Texas State Penitentiary at Huntsville. Thus, Lee was the last inmate executed by the state of Texas by hanging, as well as the last inmate executed outside of Huntsville.
