>...right. And considering how many death-row inmates have been released because they were in fact innocent, my guess is that it's safe to assume that there has been innocent people executed. At the current time there is no case where this has been proven , but of course cone the person is executed, no one really looks anymore. I think its just a matter of time before this happens though. When it does happen it will be interesting if it changes anyone's mind on the subject or not.
