Years ago, in state documents, Vachel Carmouche was always
referred to as the electrician, never as the executioner. That
was back in the day when the electric chair was sometimes
housed in Angola. At other times it traveled, along with its
own generators, on a flatbed semitruck from parish prison to
parish prison. Vachel Carmouche did the state's work. He
was good at it.
