California has inmates on death row who have been there for close to thirty years. A large number have been on death row for over twenty years.
The California law is a bad Leno joke.
"The father of slain teen Chelsea King was right Friday when he complained that in California the death penalty "has become an empty promise."
The 701 death row inmates in California stand a better chance of dying from old age or disease than an executioner's needle.
Appeals that can be filed at virtually every level of state and federal courts generally prevent the death penalty from being exercised in anything close to a speedy fashion in California."
Any wonder murderers worry more the bad food then the needle?
Stop the joke, we need to get serious.
