an eduction on death row

LA Times - death row report sees failed system

Though I thought this article ended a little to soon It was educational for someone who knows nothing about what is happening in our courts and just showed how fucked the California court is when it comes to dealing with the dark cloud hovering above their heads.

"The time from death sentence to execution in California is 20 to 25 years, compared with the national average of 12 years, the commission said. Thirty inmates have been on death row more than 25 years, 119 for more than 20 years and 240 for more than 15, according to the report. The state spends about $138 million a year on the death penalty and has executed 13 people over the last three decades, the commission said."
