Lena Baker

Lena Baker (June 8, 1900 – March 5, 1945) was an African American maid who was falsely accused of capital murder by the state of Georgia in 1945 for killing her white employer, Ernest Knight,〔 and executed by the state. At her trial she said that he had imprisoned and threatened to shoot her should she try to leave. She took his gun and shot him. Baker was the only woman to be executed by electrocution in Georgia.
The slaying and execution came at a time of official racial segregation and the suppression of civil rights of black citizens in Georgia. In 2005, sixty years after her execution, the state of Georgia granted Ms. Baker a full and unconditional pardon. The feature film ''The Lena Baker Story'' (2008) chronicles the events surrounding her early life and her execution.
==Early life==
Lena Baker was born June 8, 1900, to a poor black family of sharecroppers and raised near Cuthbert, Georgia. Her family moved to the county seat when she was a child. As a youth, she worked for a farmer named J.A. Cox, chopping cotton.
