United States should drop death penalty
I respond to the Associated Press article “Botched execution intensifies objections” in Thursday’s Dispatch. What’s worse? That the government botches executions, or that it sentences dozens of innocent people to death?

It’s time to face the facts. The death penalty in Ohio and across the United States is too broken to be fixed.

A lot of people were shocked this week when a study was published by the prestigious National Academy of Sciences stating that 4 percent of death sentences — one out of every 25 — was imposed on an innocent person.

I wasn’t shocked. I spent 22 years on Ohio’s Death Row for a crime I did not and could not have committed.
