Well, I don't think there's much I can add that hasn't been said. I'm wholly against capital punishment both morally and economically (a lot of people seem to think it's a cheaper solution to imprisonment, but not necessarily) and seeing as the testimony against him was so shady, I certainly don't think that such an irreversible punishment should have been used. What if everything comes together in a few months and we find out he's innocent? A sorry from the law won't change the fact that they essentially murdered him.
