That makes two of us but we are definatly in the minority here.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.

Too many innocent people have been put to death Then you should be in favor of Peterson's eventual execution. His would be the exception to what you see as some 'rule'. It would show that Justice CAN be done, sometimes; and not to dismiss the legitimate complaint that some went to their execution innocent of the charges. Not the case, here. And you don't sound glad for it, in that way.

Too many innocent people have been put to death Just out of curiosity, could name one?
To: BJungNan
I wrote a report on that subject- Those mistakes were mostly due to lack of DNA evidence. It was DNA that exonerated most of them.
Now that we have such advanced DNA evidence testing it will be more unlikely that the innocent will be convicted of murder.
