Experience doesn’t refute moral and legal truth like the injustice of double jeopardy. Nevertheless, I’m curious why you came away from death row in favor of the death penalty.

I was always in favor of it. I had to deal with them on a personal level. I talked to them face to face. I read their files. I spent the majority of my time with GP. I read their files too. I thought a substantial amount of them should have been on the "row" also. The death penalty is not meant to be revenge, though some may think it is. It is not meant to be a deterrent, but if it does that, it is ok too. It is meant to be punishment.

You are entitled to your opinion, and I respect that. I just don't agree with it. Later bro.
