I am all for the death penalty. I think if you are convicted of any violent crime, a crime against children, the elderly or animals, you should be executed. You are a waste of society and its resources. That being said, Georgia just executed a man despite very little physical evidence and 7 of 9 witnesses recanting their statements and claiming police coercion. I think Georgia and those who denied his appeal made a huge mistake in executing him. Now, I cant say for sure I think he was innocent or guilty, but with that huge amount of doubt, he should not have been executed. At least not until everything was investigated and played out to its conclusion. Georgia may well have executed an innocent man which is injustice for two reasons. The obvious is an innocent man was put to death, but also if he was innocent, then the guilty party has and likely will not be punished for the crime.
Sad.
