California has executed a total of three people since 1977.That is why there are over 600 on death row.Richard Davis who brutally murdered Polly Klass was sentenced probably close to seven years ago to death.He has yet to be appointed his appeals lawyers.Appeals of course will take years.My guess it would be a minimum of 15 years before Westerfield would face execution and hes already in his mid mid fifties, so my guess is he will die a natural death in prison before he is ever executed. The residents of California ought to be outraged by this. And until they are the system won't change.

Thanks for that interesting statistic.

This means, that barring a dramatic turnaround, this sentence is meaningless.

That's a good little factoid. I knew Kalifornia was going to screw this up one way or another.

Our record is bad, all right, but not *that* bad. California has executed eleven from 1992 to the present.

It's too late for outrage.
They've allowed their state to be taken over and run by a bunch of psychopathic perverts - and now even when decent people get out and vote, nothing changes because the perverts outnumber them. The entire California state bureaucracy is staffed with perverts. Even if a decent person happens to get elected by chance, the bureaucracy remains the enclave of deviants, and it continues to get worse.
