William Burke was executed on January 28, 1829, while William Hare died in 1839, reportedly of natural causes. Burke was hanged for his role in the notorious murders committed with Hare, who was granted immunity in exchange for testifying against Burke. After his release, Hare's later life is less documented, but he is believed to have lived in relative obscurity.
