Mata Hari, subject of the film Femme Fatale(Greta Garbo), was executed on this day, 1917. She was convicted of being a German spy and faced a firing squad at the Prison Saint-Lazare in France. Rumor has it that she opened her funeral coat towards her executioners, with no clothes on underneath, before being gunned down.

not a lot that's relevant in the news archives for this day, so here's an amusing story instead
on 17 october 1906 ....
Wearing a captain's uniform, Wilhelm Voigt, a 57-year-old German shoemaker with a long criminal record, approached a troop of soldiers in Tegel, Germany, just outside Berlin and ordered the unit to follow him 20 miles to the town of Kopenik. After lunch, he put the men in position and stormed into the mayor's office. Declaring that the mayor was under arrest, Voigt commanded the troops to take him into custody. He then demanded to see the cash box and confiscated the 4,000 marks inside. The mayor was put in a car, and Voigt ordered that he be delivered to the police in Berlin.
On the way to Berlin, Voigt managed to disappear with the money. Still, it took more than a few hours at the police station before everyone realized that it was all a hoax. Although the Kaiser thought the story was funny, the German army didn't find it so amusing, and a massive campaign to find Voigt was instituted. Days later, Voigt was caught in Berlin. He received a four-year sentence for his caper, but the Kaiser himself pulled some strings to get him out in less than two.
Voigt wound up a folk hero for the rest of his days for his humiliation of the German army by exploiting their blind obedience to authority and getting them to assist in his audacious robbery, and wearing the captain's uniform, he posed for pictures for years.

Andreas Baader, Gudrun Ensslin and Jan Carl Raspe committed suicide in the high security block in Stammheim prison during the night of 18 October 1977, which became known as the "Death Night" for the leaders of the Red Army Faction.
Ensslin was found dead by hanging in her cell. Baader and Raspe shot themselves. A forth member, Irmgard Moller, stabbed herself four times in the chest with a stolen knife.
She survived her suicide attempt and has since stated that the deaths were not suicide, but rather extrajudicial killings undertaken by the German government of the time, a claim strongly denied by the German government. The exhaustive study of the RAF by Stefan Aust (Baader-Meinhof: the inside story of the RAF) is categorical in finding the deaths suicides.
On 27 October 1977 Ensslin was buried in a common grave with Baader and Raspe in the Dornhalde Cemetery in Stuttgart.
