Sorry to go of a a tangent but should life mean life? I am against the death penalty, whilst I may have more chance of winning the lottery than being convicted of murder I dread to think of my mental state should I be wrongly convicted of same. I think that convicted murderers should never be released regardless of the circumstances. If at a later date they appeal successfully then release and compensate them, otherwise throw away the key.

However, I would sooner see a 1000 murderers go free than execute 1 innocent person.
