Ronald Joseph Ryan (21 February 1925 – 3 February 1967) was the last person to be legally hanged in Australia. Ryan was found guilty of shooting and killing warder George Hodson during an escape from Pentridge Prison, Victoria, in 1965. Ryan's hanging was met with public protests by those opposed to capital punishment. The death penalty was abolished in all states by 1985.
