    I was once coerced into watching confessions of a window cleaner which i do believe was made in the 70s.

    Geography class was never the same after that.

    "He has protested his innocence from the beginning"

    Have you ever heard anyone on Death Row admit their guilt?

    Yes, the ones that are wanting forgiveness, I'm sure admitted their guilt and also the ones who didn't want forgiveness and pleaded guilty in court

    I saw one chap who was a gang leader (Cripps & Bloods and that) who admitted to the crime he'd been put on death row for but said that he should be let off death row because he'd written books and reformed while in prison. Arnold Schwarzenegger approved the execution iirc.

    They are few and far between, people who know the evidence against them is so overwhelming that they have no option but to admit their guilt and hope someone on the parole board feels sorry enough to let them off.

    Most of the people in this programme are saying the DNA or witness testimony is wrong.

    I’ll have to review ALL the available data before making my decision on each case.

    Thanks

    The Christian teachings tells us to love thy neighbour.

    I suppose it comes down to interpretation. <whistle>

    There are two remaining capital offenses in the United Kingdom: forcing fig rolls into the queen's mouth, and not bowing to Andrew Lloyd Webber as he passes by.
