“I support the death penalty. I think that it has to be administered not only fairly, with attention to things like DNA evidence, which I think should be used in all capital cases, but also with very careful attention.

Not only has an innocent person been executed but the real perpetrator of the crime has not been held accountable for it, and in some cases may be still at large.
