My own particular belief is that the death penalty as it is currently implemented is an abomination. But I also believe that there are just some crimes committed that must be punished by death. I have often wondered why the death penalty shouldn't only be imposed in cases where there is a 100% moral certainty that the accused committed the crime, ie, caught at the scene of the crime, captured on videotape, etc. Other than these types of cases, we really should be thinking about not allowing the death penalty anymore. |

It's one thing to put someone in death row for one conviction (with a possible error rate), another, would be to put someone for multiple convictions (and not from the same event)
Unless there's a direct evidence (filming, or something similar) no evidence (testimony, DNA, etc) should be enough to put someone in death row.
