SLIGHT CORRECTION TO REALITIES OF THE DAY: The American system was designed with the idea that its better to let 1000 of guilty go free AND MURDER AGAIN, than execute 1 who is innocent.

As if executing an innocent in this or the O.J. Simpson case was the choice. Absurd!

I have far less problem letting a murderer go even if they kill again than giving the state the power to execute innocent men and women.

That is an excellent point, one that we all should never forget.
