Prior convicted inmates are being found innocent in more numbers than I care to think about in recent years. If I were ever to find myself on a jury where the death penalty was on the table, before I found the person guilty I know that I would want to believe in my heart that the person was in fact guilty of the crime for which they had been found guilty. In this case, even though this man allegedly did not harm the women, he also did nothing to stop his conspirato­r from doing so either.
