If anyone needed convicing that the death penalty is wrong, this article might help...

This to me was the most damning and shocking part...
"Hernandez and Cruz are but two of 17 men in Illinois who, since the state re-established capital punishment in 1977, have been sentenced to death and later legally absolved of the murder for which they were convicted."
Makes you wonder just how many innocent people have actually been executed.
