I have a hard time explaining my feelings on the death penalty.
My 17 year old sister was raped & murdered just about 10 years ago. We've never found her killers. If and when we find them - they will be lucky to get the death penalty.

On the other hand, my husband works for both the prosecution & the defense on the very same kind of cases, and I can't tell you how many times it's come out that the person in custody (usually prison by the time he gets involved) is actually innocent.

I would fully support the death penalty if we had a better justice system.
