Edmund George Zagorski (December 27, 1954 – November 1, 2018)[1] was an American convicted murderer from Michigan who was executed by the state of Tennessee for the 1983 murders of John Dotson and Jimmy Porter in Robertson County. Zagorski lured the two men into a wooded hunting ground under the pretense of selling them 100 lb (45 kg) of marijuana before shooting them and slitting their throats.[2]
The state of Tennessee made multiple attempts to execute Zagorski over the course of almost a decade. Ultimately, he became the first inmate legally executed by electrocution in almost six years in the United States on November 1, 2018.[3][4]
