		Ethel and Julius Rosenberg were executed for espionage in Sing Sing Prison on 19 June 1953.

	The Straight Dope: Were Ethel and Julius Rosenberg Soviet spies? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The trial of the Rosenbergs, the only U.S. civilians ever executed for espionage, was one of the most notorious episodes of the cold war.
		Among other things Julius was accused of persuading his brother-in-law David Greenglass, a technician at the Los Alamos nuclear lab, to divulge design details for the implosion device needed to trigger the bomb, which were then passed to the Soviets.
		True, the Espionage Act of 1917, under which the Rosenbergs were convicted, permitted execution for spying "in time of war." But you'd think it might count for something that during World War II, when the couple passed along their ill-gotten secrets, the Soviet Union was an ally.
