There have been a whole bunch of men convicted of rape eventually released because DNA tests proved the rapist was some other guy. Being alive, still, they could, years after their conviction, still get some outsider convinced enough of their innocence that their cases weren't forgotten. And they have families to fight for their innocent member, the still-living innocents do. Not the dead ones.

Of course if they'd been executed, no one would have demanded the case be reopened.

Do you really think there are more wrongfully convicted rapists than there are wrongfully convicted murderers? I can't imagine why anyone would think that. I mean, there is often an eye witness who got a close up look in a rape case.

I did post some cases to JCD relating to this subject.
