Best Answer

Socrates chose to drink poison hemlock as his method of execution after being sentenced to death by the Athenian court for corrupting the youth and impiety. He believed in upholding the laws of the city, even to the point of accepting death, as he believed in the importance of virtue and integrity above all else.
