Some people are curious to the executions, families of the victim that the perp killed usually watch them to bring some closure to the death of their family member.

Some are medical and Forensic students who are learning about Capital Punishment, how it works ect ect.

No-one really know's exactly why, personally i would only go to an execution as a form of learning as i hope to study Forensic Science.

Hope that kinda helped!

To either get closure from knowing that the person that harmed them is dead and he/she can no longer do anymore harm, or they're a relative who wants watch their family die, but the main reason is so that they make sure that the person who is being killed still is being treated correctly because they still have rights.

During an execution is the criminal's family allowed to watch?

It depends on the country and, sometimes, the particular crime the accused committed. In the case of the United States, in most states with executions, the criminal's family is allowed to watch. In the case of China, the criminal's family is only notified of the execution afterwards and is forbidden to watch. In Iran, some executions, such as those for felonies, are typically public executions. The removal of political opponents have typically been secret executions.
