How many innocent people are we willing to execute....

Since I (nor, apprently, Amnesty International) can find an instance where that has ever happened, I'd say the system is working out pretty well.

I've read about something like eight people recently who were sentenced to die and MUCH later found to be innocent through DNA testing. One can only assume that, prior to DNA testing, such people were executed.

The government almost ALWAYS refuses to allow further testing post-execution, so AI, or anyone else who tried, would be unable to find proof that it happened.
