members of the state's Department of Corrections for their own records, and later subpoenaed and entered into state court
records as part of challenges to the electric chair statute. In addition, the collection includes copies of materials (transcripts,
documents, affidavits, autopsy records, etc.) West and his co-counsel Robert Citronberg had accumulated to date of donation
(August 2004) in support of legal challenges to the Georgia statute prescribing lethal injection as the new means of state
execution.
