RE: Who Had The Worst Job?
I agree with Betty. As far as everyone else was concerned, the four were murderers, or attempted assassins, and therefore not human beings. The people who got closest to them, were shown a side to them that was not shown in court or to the public, who saw and dealt with their humanity, had the hardest job of all.

In the case of Powell, who had no one who loved him with him in those final darkest hours, the work Gillette did must have been doubly important for the youngest conspirator and must have imposed a terrible burden on that man. I believe he had a hard time reconciling himself to Powell's death, having no doubt forged a relationship that bordered on the father/son side or at least the closest Powell could have in that respect at that time when he needed it most.

It's not a job I would have liked. And yet, it was probably the most important and fulfilling.
