Oh it gets better. Without even reading the study, I can guess that the counties they selected are all rural to semi-rural, close to a major city and most if not all of those sentenced to the death penalty are not from the county.
“.......most if not all of those sentenced to the death penalty are not from the county.”.......
Doesn’t Harris County include Houston which has a huge population of blacks? (I am NOT insinuating that those sentenced with the death penalty are indeed blacks).
