I ...Hey Harry, man that's a very good question. I personally think that it's already been proven a couple of times. But, those with: closed minds and, the brain washed gangbangers (Rs, Ds & Inbetweeners) would be ridiculed by their own gangs if they grew a pair and agreed using their real names. I say give Death Row wrongs $1 million per year (with lawyers getting none of it) and $100K per year to anyone else that's wronged - despite the type of evidence or, year of the wronging. If that doesn't wake up taxpayers, raise it. Or, remove the $80K per year bribe dedicated to the selected few and give nothing but a Public Apology from the court house steps & issue a Full Pardon - for / based on Innocence. <br /><br />While we all want the killers & rapists permanently off the streets, that doesn't mean that we must Cherry Pick a few of them to kill and imprison the rest. Instead, they should all be housed in the same facility in downtown Austin, Tx. (forever) vs. being spread around the state with folks doing time for non-violent crimes and all the sudden throw them back into society, with a time out making it all go away. <br /><br />When & if they are deemed to have been wrongfully convicted via: mandatory supervetting, we can simply release them with enough sorry-about-that bribery funds that hopefully makes everyone sick and tired of allowing it. Until then, we are on course for: decades of Rinsing & Repeating and Bloggingaboutit. For that, we have the Legislature and those that put them in their compfy chairs to thank. Thanks. <br /><br />*As for the Marshall Project, c'mon, like Grits has pointed out, it's been uncovered & covered by plenty of groups with GFB being the most prolific. I thought they were going to do something different with all of that money and gifted minds. Unless they are working on behalf of the Willingham Estate and / or, are an Anti-Death Penalty group - What a let down.Thomas R.

It blows my mind when I hear that logic.

It seems that TPTB and the players involved can keep the waters muddied enough (or stymied enough) so no definitive resolution is ever made.Harry Homelesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03947463975664686669noreply@blogger.com
