Government Bad fire good
I did a bit of looking and found many site claiming X number of people have been executed and later found innocent. Strangely I could not find specific examples. I would think it would take a strange combination of circumstances for a dead man to be later exonerated. This in my opinion on this subject.
In civil matters one must only prove their case by a preponderance of the evidence. Criminal matters have must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. If we are to continue to execute people I think there should be an even higher standard applied to those cases. The judicial system is a branch of our government. Our government is by its very nature Incompetent. I am not comfortable with the government making life and death decisions. Just MHO
