Thanks, I am seriously rethinking my position on this. <<they were found "legally" innocent: their lawyers were totally incompetent, and botched the defense; exonerating evidence was withheld by the prosecution; etc. In short, their guilt was not proven "beyond a reasonable doubt." Guilt not being proven does not prove innocence. This is one bug I've got up my leg. It irks me when people claim innocence was proven just because the person got a stay or was released. It clouds the issue for me. Bottom line for me is that it looks like our system of determining a crime punishable by execution is seriously flawed (big surprise...not). So, for the time being I am going to have to withdraw my support of the current practice of imposing the death penalty. Mind you, I still see execution as just, but we must establish better criteria for what qualifies to establish guilt.
