Subject: RE: BS: USA sliding into depravity (botched execution)
Mexico stopped executions for political crimes, but it is still possible for homicide with treachery, premeditation or unfair advantage.
Mexican Review, Is the death penalty constitutional in Mexico? Enrique Díaz-Aranda, June, 2007.
Wikipedia lists 33 countries which have the death penalty, including Russia, Japan, India and Taiwan. Some have not used it in the last ten years or have a moratorium.
"....90% of ...executions take place in Asia."
