Ah! That old chestnut. There's always one who trots that daft statistic out - that isn't because of CP, it's because your judicial system is screwed & inefficient.

That may be true but there isn't any talk of reforming the judicial system (and the prison system too).

Your statement is flawed in that you want to throw away a valid point because in a "better world" it needed be a valid point. Sheesh.



David,

I don't have stats right now, but I will ask around. I good friend works with Amnesty and is also the widow of a former Florida Death Row inmate (he screwed the system by dieing of cancer before they could put him in "Old Sparky"). By the way, the Death Row men and women are the only inmates in Florida that receive descent healthcare. Florida hates it when they die and other way.
