Dr. J-I Guillotin a) did not invent the guillotine, which was quite an old idea; he merely proposed its use in the National Assembly, and its being named after him was the work of newspaper satirists. J-I was actually opposed to the death penalty, but thought a humane method of execution would be the first step towards abolition. His family in later years petitioned to have the name changed, and when that proved impossible, changed their own name. There WAS a Dr. Guillotin executed during the Terror, but it was a different one. J-I went on to become quite distinguished under the Empire, mostly for his work on introducing vaccination into France. A saver of lives, then, not a taker, and one to whom History owes a big apology.
Dr. Antoine Louis was the original inventor of the execution device known as the Guillotine after Dr. Joseph-Ignace Guillotin who had first proposed that beheading by a simple device should be used for executions to replace the cruel and messy methods of the era ranging from hangings and decapitation by sword to inhumane torture. Ironically Dr. Antoine Louis was indeed executed using his own invention during the Reign of Terror around 1973-1974.
Benjamin Kilster Blockess was killed by his own people.
Robespierre was an activist for the libertarians. He died through his own creation. He went too far with his revolutionary ideas. He killed thousands of people, sending them to the guillotine, just because they still believed in the monarchial system Maximilien Robespierre wanted to get rid of so desperately. He killed everybody that thought differently than him. He was the creator of the reign of terror and was eventually sent to the guillotine himself in 1794 after the French turned against him when their eyes opened and say what he had done. He didn't even have a trial, and was beheaded faced upwards.
His own guards killed him out of anger.
