There are at least 5 questions here which seem to be conflated: 1. Is there a good process in place? 2. Was the process followed? 3. Is he actually guilty?

There are at least 5 questions here which seem to be conflated:
1. Is there a good process in place?
2. Was the process followed?
3. Is he actually guilty?
4. Is execution an appropriate punishment in his case?
5. Is execution ever an appropriate punishment?
- phkahler 11y agoI would suggest that your 3,4 and 5 are actually just questioning 1 and 2 in specific ways.
- jeffdavis 11y agoNo, you could have a horrible process and he could still be guilty. That's why I'm trying to separate the issues. I'm confused about why this case is getting particular attention.
- danielharan 11y ago330 exonerations and counting, so #3 isn't always a yes - and there's a likely no on #1 and #2. For #4 and #5 I usually say no - mainly because we can't get 1-3 right. http://www.innocenceproject.org/ http://www.innocenceproject.org/
