“While wrongful convictions occur all too often in our criminal justice system, they can sometimes be righted through appeals or new evidence. But when a wrongful capital punishment is carried out, it cannot be corrected. Modern DNA forensic science has demonstrated that hundreds of innocent people have been executed. Human life is sacred to us and we can no longer support the use of capital punishment.”

I support the efforts of Conservatives Concerned here in the state of Arkansas. The death penalty does not make us safer, is not a deterrence to crime and is not the best use of public safety.
