Too many innocent people have been put to death, too many people convicted and on death row and later found out to be innocent and released. But, I suspect I am preaching to the choir here.

Name one.

Name one.

If I am going to score debate points by naming one, then I guess I don't get any points. I don't have the names chronicled. And doing a Google search yeilds an "everyone is innocent" list of results from every con whose family has access to a web site.

But, certainly if you watch the news you have seen accounts of innocent people being let out of prision - even death row - after it became quite certain they had not done it.

The most recent is a gentleman recently released from Texas death row after 17 years there. He was interviewed on one of the major networks, - may have been Foxnews (that is what I watch).
