Michael A. Godwin was sentenced to death in 1981 for raping and murdering a woman while he was on work release for a 1978 robbery conviction. During a retrial he was found not guilty of the sexual assault and was resentenced to life in prison. Then in 1989, while sitting naked on the metal commode in his prison cell, he accidently electrocuted himself after biting into the headphones wires, that were plugged into a TV, in an attempt to repair them.
