And in this case, the innocent person was put to death. That is a crime.

Boy - jumping on the anti- Death Penalty side awfully quickly, aren't you? The article offers ZERO evidence this guy was innocent of the crime executed for. It simply is another exercise in the destruction of the criminal justice system.

The closest to calling him innocent was "might".

I was already on that side of the death penalty issue. I did jump to conclusions though on the article by not reading it throughly. Not really sure of the circumstances in this case.

My view on the death penalty is that it does not give society a chance to correct a mistake should someone be wrongfully charged. I weigh this as more important than any belief that someone committing a horrendous crime should be executed. I'd rather they spend the rest of their life in jail than take the chance an innocent person would be put to death.
