Quote:Neither have been proven innocent.

 

Like I said enough times already. 

 

Not one.

 

And to answer your question you keep harping on, until it's proven that an innocent person has been executed, that is exactly what I believe.

 

You know as good as I do that if there were concrete proof that an innocent person were executed, it would be the holy grail for bleeding heart liberals like you because that would be the one thing that would actually abolish the death penalty. Hell, they're putting them (executions) off left and right because the condemned snore too much and cough once or twice. You know as well as I do that absolute proof of an innocent being executed would spell the end of it all. 

 

Hasn't happened. Sorry.

 

PS: I would have given you at least some consideration for a guy like Jerry White.

You do recognize that when someone is executed, the case is over, right? Do you know what legal roadblocks there are to get off death row even when there is a ton of evidence of innocence?



I'm sure no proof would suffice, as you don't see to understand that they don't wheel the body of the homicide victim of the state and retry the case.


What say you about Ruben Cantu? He'll the prosecutor and jury foreperson, not to mention other witnesse believe an innocent man was executed.


Executed. Murdered by the state.


You response?



How about David Spence?


The police lieutenant who investigated the crime later said,"I do not think David Spence committed this crime"


The homicide detective later said, "my opinion is that David Spence was innocent. Nothing in the investigation ever led us to any evidence that he was involved."


Executed. Murdered by the state.


Response?



Btw, this reliance on that death penalty opponent would raise heck if an innocent person would be executed is just a acknowledgment of turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to the fact they have been for years.


You simpy want to bury your head in the sand. Luckily, more and more people "get it" and more states and countries are abolishing this stupidity.
