Kills by strangling
Garrotes are devices used to strangle someone, typically a cord, wire, or metal collar tightened around the throat.
The term also refers to the method of execution historically used in Spain, where a metal band was progressively tightened.
As a verb, to garrote is to kill or attack by strangling: The assassin garroted the guard from behind.
