Richard E. Kiefer was an American murderer who gained infamy as the last person executed in Indiana prior to the 1972 national moratorium on capital punishment. In 1957, Kiefer murdered his wife and daughter in a brutal attack, leading to his arrest after he returned to surrender. Initially convicted of his wife's murder, he faced a retrial and was sentenced to death. Kiefer's execution occurred on June 15, 1961, by electric chair, marking a significant moment in Indiana's criminal justice history.
