Well we at least have one thing we agree on Scandium. |
I disagree. An eye for an eye. Makes people think twice, such as the husband thinking about murdering his wife or vice versa, before they commit to something.
Problem is, if you are going to put someone on death row, you better damn well be sure it is the right guy. Problem is, some of these guys are not getting what I would call a fair trial and being sent up their because they couldn't a good lawyer. And then there is the problem of the rich buying their way out, but thats a whole other story. We need to fix a few things I think. Just my opinion.

PS. One more thought - If you are going to send someone up there, and DNA can be used or disprove something, it should be a mandatory test. I think prosecutors get tired and just want a case closed, even at the expense of a mans life, just to show the public that its taken care of.
