Well, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was hanged in a concentration camp because he basically lived the ethics that he taught. Bonhoeffer was an advocate for Jews in national socialist Germany during World War two, and that landed him in prison.

Bonhoeffer was hanged at Flossenburg prison on April 9, 1945, eleven days before it was liberated by US forces. His last words were; "This is the end - for me the beginning of life."
