George Dale (1906 – April 20, 1934[2]) was the lover and criminal partner of Eleanor Jarman, dubbed by the press "The Blonde Tigress".

[3] Dale was executed by the state of Illinois in 1934 for the murder of Chicago clothier Gustav Hoeh, which he committed with Jarman and another criminal associate, Leo Minnici, acting as his accomplices.

Before the murder of Hoev and Dale's execution, he was a radio worker, an occupation that was ultimately listed on his death certificate.

[9][10] Dale was sentenced to death and sent to the Cook County Jail to await execution while Jarman was sent to the Dwight Correctional Center.

[10] Before hearing his death sentence, Dale attempted to absolve Jarman of the murder of Hoeh, telling the judge that another woman, Mary Davis, was his accomplice.

[12] Dale was originally scheduled to be executed on October 13, 1933, alongside Morris Cohen and John Scheck, who were sentenced to death for unrelated crimes.

[13] Dale was ultimately scheduled to be executed on April 20, 1934, the same night as Scheck and a third condemned man named Joseph Francis.

Authorities scheduled the executions for shortly after dawn to discourage "morbid curiosity seekers" from attempting to procure tickets to witness.
