By John Quiggin:

The NY Times has an interesting piece on statistical studies of the deterrent effect (if any) of the death penalty. For those who want to get straight into fact-free debate, the bottom line is that the evidence is too weak to allow a firm conclusion one way or the other.... On the other hand, US experience has shown beyond doubt that innocent people are regularly sentenced to death, and it’s virtually certain that some have been executed.
