>> Using new DNA analysis they have been finding people constantly that were convicted of all sorts of crimes that were innocent. Not "innocent". Not guilty. Two entirely different things. Many of these people are being freed years after the fact because they win new trials and the evidence they were convicted on can be refuted by DNA evidence. That doesn't make them innocent. That means they may not have been proven guilty. While everyone ought to be concerned about innocent people being executed, the truth is innocent people get executed every single day on our streets. 50 kids aged 14 and under have been executed in Chicago in the last year. Not one of their killers has received a death sentence, let alone been executed.
