The Willingham case shows that the death penalty is applied in a somewhat random fashion, a flaw that probably can't be fixed due to the human element ... if we could get someone like Professor Stephen Hawking to make the final judgment in death cases it might be workable, cause that dude is unlikely to make a mistake or base his decision on emotion ... but as things stand the only choice is to abandon the death penalty, which we will do eventually.
