Irene Schroder was the youngest of 15 children born in poverty with very little life skills and choices ahead of her. When she meets married Boy Scout leader and Sunday school teacher Walter Glenn Dague the choices they make together would lead to Irene being the first woman in Pennsylvania to be executed via electric chair.
