If they prove guilt, then why do we have so many innocent citizens in our prisons and jails? And, forensics is not absolute science, and labs are known to make mistakes. I have posted many links in this thread that show many lab results are flawed and identify the wrong person.1. Of course it doesn't excuse or justify sending innocent citizens to prison,and why are you asking me that, when I never even came close to saying such a thing. In fact in mor ethan 1 post I said convictions soul dbe only when the proof is positive.Does that excuse or justify sending innocent citizens to prison, and in some cases, to death row? Do you approve of circumstantial evidence cases?You are WRONG. They have ALREADY killed again, many times over. See Post # 17. Helps if you read the thread before entering.Life, without parole....is the solution.....they will not kill again.If executions were barred (as they are already in some states) what is to be said for all the people that get killed because that execution did not occur ?Innocent people being executed should be an insurmountable bar to execution.
In the prosecutor's case, the DA's office is probably building a second degree murder or willful homicide case against Jackson. If it is built right, Jackson will ieave prison someday in a pine box.
If Timothy McVeigh and John Allen Muhammad had not been executed, can we say everyone would have been safe from being killed by them ? We have a balance scale. On one side, all the people killed by killers who didn't get executed. On the other side, those executed wrongly. Does anyone in this thread have the complete numbers on that ?

2. I absolutely do approve of circumstantial evidence cases, and depending on the forensics, they are some of the most positive cases of all.
