"Twilight Sparkle, you have been condemned to die by a jury of your peers, sentence imposed by a judge in good standing in this state. Electricity shall be passed through your body until you are dead, in accordance with state law.
Celestia have mercy on your soul. Do you have anything to say before the sentence is carried out?"
It wasn't my first show on Block E, but if I knew of the acts we would be participating in this evening, I would have resigned ahead of time.
My name is Captain Pinkamena Diane Pie, and I'm the superior officer of Canterlot Federal Penitentary, Block E. I know what you must be thinking, that I am a hard ass soulless coward who enjoys nothing but seeing criminal men with sealed fates squirm like worms.
I assure you, this is not the spirit of Block E, nor is it the spirit of my fellow officers. Sargeant Rainbow "Brutul" Dash, Liuetenant Rarity "Perkins" Menowitz, Captain Jacqueline Appleline, and a new addition to our fine staff, not because our budget would allow, because Heaven forbid Warden Cake would allow such a thing on his dime, but through a connection with some "royal family" Ensign Trixie Yamaguchi.

See, we here at Block E, just don't deal with the typical everyday garden variety kind of criminal. Block E is where ponies come to die, the evilest of evils reside in these pink walls, and its my honest belief, alongside my staff, that these ponies lives have already ended. No need to make it harder on them.

Things were causal on Block E, we never held more than 5 inmates at a time, we simply grew accustomed to coming and passing of new visitors. However, there was this one incident, back in 1947 that still haunts me to this day. An incident that would forever change the halls of the Pink Mile.
