In those days, one’s ‘trial’ was more of an affirmation of charges against the accused, as Kimberly would find out. She is brought before the governor wearing nothing but the rope binding her wrists crossed behind her back. Presented bare before the town’s elders, she listened as the governor graphically describes Kimberly's sexual actions with the unnamed ‘other women’.
Kimberly was disappointed but not surprised when the governor boldly calls out for her conviction.

Much to Kimberly’s surprise, the elders, many of whom she had slept with, unanimously voted to convict her. The following day she would be executed, hanged by her neck until she was dead.
The next day she is escorted from the dark bowels of the dungeon.

With a collar fastened around her neck, Kimberly is removed from the dank, wet pit and into the warmth of the late morning sun. There is no comfort in seeing the daylight. The time of her hanging would provide the best light for the spectators to witness her last moments alive as she strangles with the rope closing her throat. Besides being led to her execution, Kimberly is amazed at the people who have come to see her hanged.

They had watched her grow from a young girl and were here to see her hanged. Was it contempt for her, loyalty to the governor, or the desire to see her nude body’s desperate dance as the rope terminated her life?
Kimberly looks about at the crowd.

Why they have come doesn’t matter. They will watch her die as the rope closes around her neck.
The governor had a platform built around the scaffold. He wisely figured that there would be a large crowd there to see Kimberly’s execution. Kimberly is ‘assisted’ climbing the steps to the waiting noose.

Is it her fear of the noose or the exhausting night of being used continuously by the dungeon’s guards that made her ascent such a slow, deliberate event?
Whatever the cause, the executioner eagerly places the noose around her neck.

With her hands bound behind her back, only the wince on her face reveals her displeasure of the rope. With lewd disregard, the execution feels Kimberly’s vagina and rubs his wet fingers on her belly.

“Looking forward to being hanged? Let’s see if you cum when you’re hanging by you neck” he scowls at Kimberly. She refrains from telling him she pissed on the way to the scaffold. ‘Let the bastard enjoy my pee’ she thought.
Standing noosed and naked, Kimberly is resigned to being hanged if for no other reason but to silence the remarks the crowd is shouting at her. She has no idea what being hanged will feel like but surely it cannot be worse than the townsfolk gawking at her bare body and yelling insults to her.
But Kimberly’s execution has to wait as the governor’s secretary climbs the platform, unrolls a scroll, and reads every tawdry detail of Kimberly’s acts that she will be hanged for.

Kimberly’s face reddens as her ‘crimes’ are read aloud. She would run and hide instead standing exposed before the crowd but the noose prevents her flight. The woman finishes reading the counts Kimberly has been sentenced to be hanged for. She looks down at the woman and asks “Are you done yet?”

The woman looks up at Kimberly and scowls “It will be a pleasure watching you hang.”
Without hesitation Kimberly looks at the hangman and demands “Just do it!”
