Should juries or judges have more say in sentencing a convict to death?
On Tuesday, September 2, 2003, the federal appeals court in San Francisco changed over 100 death penalty sentences into life sentences. The sentences were changed due to a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that only juries, not judges can make factual determinations in death penalty cases.
Judges vs. Juries ???

The State's Justice System makes mistakes all the time. Thus no death penalty should ever be imposed.
