Updated June 12, 2001, 9:20 a.m. ET McVeigh execution prompts protests in Europe Anti-death penalty protesters lit candles in the streets outside American embassies in Europe and held up posters of Timothy McVeigh as President Bush crossed the Atlantic on his first major overseas trip. "Bush, a compassionate killer!" read a sign held aloft by Spanish human rights activists outside the U.S. Embassy in Madrid, where Bush on Tuesday starts a European trip. Their crusade was energized by a Spaniard who returned a free man Sunday after three years on death row in Florida. Sergio D'Elia, who stood among a group of people holding McVeigh pictures across from the U.S. Embassy in Rome, said, "We do not question the facts in the case against McVeigh, but we are protesting the principle of the death penalty." "He deserved to die," said Min Sung-joo, 31, a computer programer in South Korea, where about 40 convicts are reportedly on death row.

    The feeble 'arguments' against capital punishment http://www.jewishworldreview.com TWO DAYS after Timothy McVeigh's execution, The New York Times published eight letters to the editor discussing the event and expressing an opinion on the death penalty. Six of the eight were against executing murderers, one was in favor, and one was in favor in a case of mass atrocity like McVeigh's. Four days earlier, the Times had published a letter from a death-penalty supporter. The day before that, there had been three letters on the subject, all opposed. A few days earlier, another three letters; again, all opposed. And four letters opposing capital punishment had appeared in May, around the time McVeigh was originally supposed to die. By my count, then, over the past six weeks the Times has run 19 letters remarking in some fashion on the death penalty, of which 16 84 percent were anti-execution. Now, letters to the editor, even in the nation's unofficial "paper of record," are no gauge of public opinion. It is common knowledge that Americans support capital punishment overwhelmingly so in McVeigh's case.

    State looks at capital punishment
    By Allison Brown Published: Friday, March 28, 2003 Governor Mitt Romney pledged his support for reinstating the death penalty in Massachusetts, while many opponents of capital punishment made their cases before a Joint Committee on Criminal Justice at the Statehouse yesterday.
    At issue were four bills currently in the state legislature: House Bill 319, which proposes the death penalty for violation of certain drug control laws; House Bill 3295 and Senate Bill 193, which both propose to reinstate the death penalty in the state and Senate Bill 194, which proposes the death penalty for certain first degree murder convictions.
    Romney will introduce this proposal later in the legislative session, the letter said, but did not offer a specific date.
    Richard Dieter, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center in Washington, D.C., cited the high cost of capital punishment as justification for the Commonwealth not reinstating it.
    He said, however, that the worst system is one that conducts capital trials and then ends up not executing any of those convicted, which happens with two-thirds of cases nationwide.

    Timothy McVeigh and Capital Punishment
    by Jason Jackson
    Christian Courier: Penpoints
    Monday, May 28, 2001 after What does this question imply? It implies the possibility that an innocent person might be put to death. Supposedly, this should convince us that capital punishment is wrong. The morality of the death penalty is examined every time an execution has media attention. Here are some common objections to the death penalty:
    • Capital punishment may take innocent lives.
    • Capital punishment is implemented with racial prejudice.
    • Capital punishment is not a deterrent to crime.
    • Capital punishment focuses on punishment and not rehabilitation.

    (download RealPlayer) "It seems that more and more people are now against the death penalty," Polzin said. "We want to get the word out to save this man. He doesn't deserve to die." "There are concerns, but we've dealt with obstacles before and we're used to it," said Diann Rust-Tierney, Director of the ACLU's Capital Punishment Project. "With more information on disparities in race, prosecutorial misconduct, and inadequate representation in various death penalty cases nationwide, we have the attention of the American public that we haven't had in a long time." According to a poll taken by Peter Hart Research and American Viewpoint last year, 64 percent of Americans surveyed said they support a moratorium on all executions unless issues of fairness in capital punishment could be resolved. Another survey taken by the Harris Poll last year found that support for the death penalty had dropped to 64 percent in 2000, down from 71 percent in 1999 and 75 percent in 1997. And, according to the American Civil Liberties Union, Charlotte, N.C. and Harrisburg, Pa., joined more than two dozen municipalities, including Philadelphia, Atlanta, and San Francisco, that have called for moratoriums nationwide.

    Capital Punishment
    The paper analyzes the topic of capital punishment, focusing specifically on the Washington D.C. sniper case, to argue why the death penalty is a necessary form of punishment for violent crimes, and should not be abolished. Paper #: # of words: # of sources: Format: MLA Written: Author: Michael S
    Abstract
    The paper looks at the pros and cons of capital punishment and then examines the issue of jurisdiction in the case of the Washington D.C. sniper, since only certain states carry the death penalty. The paper also discusses a new anti-terrorism law enacted after September 11th 2001, that says a murderer can receive the death penalty if they shoot more than one person within three years. The paper argues that the death penalty is the only real deterrent to violent crime and therefore should not be abolished.
    From The Paper
    "Capital punishment is not a simple issue; it has long been debated and has always been divisive and emotional for both sides, both pro and anti death penalty. In the United States, the debated over capital punishment began soon after American achieved independence from England. Some Americans wondered if any person or government really had the right to take a human life (Vila and Morris xxv), and the dispute has raged ever since. Obviously, capital punishment is necessary, or so many inmates would not have been put to death in the United States. Between 1977 and 2000, 683 inmates have been put to death under their state's death penalty laws. The states use several different methods to carry out the death penalty. 519 were by lethal injection, 149 were by electrocution, 11 were by lethal gas, 2 were by firing squad, and 3 were by hanging (Editors 347).

    Capital Punishment, Parole, And More
    by Julia Vitullo-Martin August, 2002
    CARNEGIE DELI KILLERS SENTENCED
    The two men convicted in late June of killing three people and wounding two others in an execution-style murder and robbery above midtown's Carnegie Deli have been sentenced to life in prison. Each murder count carries a prison term of 25 years to life. The two counts of robbery carry 15 years each, as does the count of criminal possession of a weapon. All the terms will be served consecutively. The Carnegie Deli slayings had focused attention on the anti-death penalty stance of Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau, who refused to prosecute the triple murders as death penalty cases. Arguing after the trials that there had been insufficient evidence to prove that a single shooter fired the shots, he said that "The statute's pretty narrow. People who are for the death penalty don't want to understand that. We couldn't prove who the shooter was and we can only charge the actual person." Prosecutor David O'Keefe said the two would have to serve 116 years before being eligible for parole.

    ... POLITICS : AT HOME WITH CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
    At Home With Capital Punishment
    BY MICHAEL KING
    Anti-death-penalty activists march down Congress Avenue on Saturday.

    Following a march through downtown to the Governor's Mansion and the Capitol, a couple of hundred death penalty abolitionists gathered Saturday afternoon at what they called the third point on "the axis of evil" the Court of Criminal Appeals, where many wrongly convicted Texas defendants have had their cases run aground before the heavily politicized and prosecution-biased justices. While acknowledging this was a bad legislative year for Texas advocates of justice, David Attwood of the Texas Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty insisted he remains undaunted, even optimistic. "We will win this battle," Attwood told the crowd, and recited the reasons he remains hopeful. "Over the last 10 to 15 years," he said, "we have gone from a handful of people to a movement of hundreds of people. When we began, all the state's major newspapers supported the death penalty; now several major state newspapers have either opposed the death penalty altogether, or at least called for a moratorium. Five or 10 years ago, not a single state legislator was willing to publicly oppose the death penalty. Now several have been willing to file bills calling for a moratorium. ..." That said, although a number of bills indeed proposed capital punishment reform, there was no legislative progress against the death penalty this year.

    SADHBH KAVANAGH
    University of Exeter, LPC at BPP sadhbh.kavanagh@simmons-simmons.com Internship with the Free Legal Assistance Group, Manila, the Philippines I spent two months working with the Free Legal Assistance Group (FLAG) in Manila, the capital of the Philippines. FLAG is a Filipino charity that provides legal advice to inmates on death row and campaigns for the abolition of the death penalty in the Philippines. Lawyers work with FLAG on a pro bono basis on capital cases, in addition to conducting their regular legal work. I worked mainly in the FLAG office, but also attended meetings of other anti-death penalty organisations in various parts of Manila, lobbied at Congress, and visited inmates at the National Penitentiary. The prison was not at all how I imagined it would be. The idea I had of death row was as it is portrayed in American films, with slamming cell doors, men in shackles, and visiting rooms with thick glass partitions where the interviews took place. The prison at Muntinlupa was not like this. Once through security you are surrounded by the inmates in the maximum-security compound and I was immediately struck by the relative freedom the inmates had within the prison compound. It was like a small village, with shops, barbers, art workshops and a rundown basketball court, but this is not to say that it was a nice place to be: it was overcrowded, smelly, a place of gangs and hierarchies and underlying it all was an air of desperation.

    The Death Penalty
    Alleged child offenders awaiting trial, Karachi, Pakistan, June 2003. The death penalty is the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment. It violates the right to life. It is irrevocable and can be inflicted on the innocent. It has never been shown to deter crime more effectively than other punishments. As an organization dedicated to the protection and promotion of human rights, Amnesty International (AI) works for an end to executions and the abolition of the death penalty everywhere.
    The progress has been dramatic. When AI convened an International Conference on the Death Penalty in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1977, just 16 countries had abolished capital punishment for all crimes. Today the figure stands at over 75.
    Executed "according to law"? The death penalty in China
    In view of the profound failings in China's criminal justice system, Amnesty International calls on the Chinese government to impose an immediate moratorium on use of the death penalty. More Each year since 1997 the United Nations Commission on Human Rights has passed a resolution calling on countries that have not abolished the death penalty to establish a moratorium on executions. The latest resolution, adopted in April 2004, was co-sponsored by 76 UN member states, one more than in 2003 and the highest number ever.
