Everything's a First

 Paul Robinson was released from prison, after 52 years!  Here's a write up on him. Project Innocence proved him innocent.  What's even more interesting is that he doesn't hold any bitterness.  He says, "What good would it do?"

He's living in the moment and lovin' it!

Use of death penalty re-examined in the states, at Supreme Court

Use of death penalty re-examined in the states, at Supreme Court: WASHINGTON (CNS) -- The United States, with its mixed record on the death penalty, is about to take a closer look at the issue this fall with two cases before the Supreme Court and three referendums on state ballots in November.
To me, it's obvious that the death penalty doesn't work.  It doesn't deter anybody.  Nowadays, too often the only ones in prison are the poor, who can't afford to appeal and appeal, etc..  The justice system is too fallible.  The innocence project has proven that.
