The Death Penalty in Florida
Florida leads the nation in the number of innocent people sentenced to death, then exonerated and freed. The Florida Supreme Court responded to this travesty with new rules that enraged Gov. Jeb Bush and pro-death penalty legislators by easing restrictions on post-conviction appeal. Bush and legislative leaders have proposed an amendment to the Florida State Constitution that would speed up executions by stripping the court of its rule-making authority.
