Now Lizzie, if you can't name them specifically, it can't possibly have happened.

Death row inmates have access to legal and evidentiary resources that ordinary inmates don't have. It is far more likely an innocent individual would spend 30 years in jail than an innocent one is executed.

Here are more than 1,000 Death Penalty links. I can't say I've read them all, but I've surfed through dozens of them. It is clear to me that there are several thousand professional and student legal researchers, opposed to the DP, that actively examine every case. Still, in the last 30 years, there has not been a single case where an executed person was later proved innocent.
