Only the final round of shots was filmed because the execution happened too quickly for the television crew covering the trial and death sentence to record it in full. There’s only footage from before and after the actual shooting, by the time the last round was captured, they were already dead. archive.org/details/rec-0001_202010 (around the 1:12:00 mark).
