And if that were the case (which it isn’t) how would you hold them accountable ?
Execute the CPS for authorising the charge ?
Execute the forensic scientist who screwed the DNA evidence up ?
Execute the jury for convicting based on the evidence that they made their decision
Execute the judge for passing the death sentence based on sentencing guidelines.
Unless you can ensure that 100% of convictions are safe then the death penalty has no place in a modern civilised society.
