proper pro, said to have offed over 200 nazis

but In his 1974 autobiography, Executioner: Pierrepoint, Albert revealed his own misgivings about capital punishment:

“It is said to be a deterrent. I cannot agree…. I do not now believe that any one of the hundreds of executions I carried out has in any way acted as a deterrent against future murder. Capital punishment, in my view, achieved nothing except revenge.”
