Terrence, in regard to the death penalty, I am not sure I would execute the judge, the jury, the warden and all the prison guards if someone has been falsely condemned to death. (Didn't you forget the butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker?) From all the cases I have read about, people are usually erroneously condemned for only a few reasons: 1) incompetent, uninterested defense attorneys provided to indigent defendants 2) unethical district attorneys who tamper with evidence and make things up to get a quick conviction--"railroading" I think juries USUALLY really try to do a good job. I think sometimes they are at the effect of the attorneys trying the case.
