The burden of proof is so high for a death penalty case, and modern advances in dna and other forensics are so good that the innocents on death row thing is really hard to believe, i know way back in time there were the false convictions but i havent heard of any in modern day trials. And look, stataes that have the death penalty have alower murder rate, so if you need to kill afew bad guys to save some inncoent people im or it.

I have no idea where Shooter got his information, what I found says the inverse is true.

The theory that threat of execution acts as a deterrent doesn't work if you only execute the minority of murderers who commit particularly heinous crimes.
