Information worth reading
* Statement by Bob Schwarz, President of the Coalition of Arizonans to Abolish the Death Penalty at the
9th Annual World Day Against the Death Penalty. |
'I shall ask for the abolition of the punishment of death until I have the infallibility of human judgment demonstrated to me.'
-- The Marquis de Lafayette, speaking to the French Chamber of Deputies in 1830, years after witnessing the excesses of the French Revolution.
National news
| MissionThe Arizona Death Penalty Forum is dedicated to ending the death penalty in Arizona through education and advocacy.
We believe the death penalty must be abolished because: -- Innocent people have been put to death across the country. Arizona’s justice system cannot guarantee that those sentenced to death are guilty. -- Arizona’s justice system has a weak record. More than half of the state’s death sentences are overturned on appeal. -- The death penalty carries a staggering cost. Millions of dollars spent on the pre-trial, trial and appeal process is taken away from other law enforcement, fire services and education. -- The death penalty is immoral. “Thou shalt not kill” is a clear expression of God’s will. h h h |
 Help us fulfill the mission to abolish the death penalty in Arizona.
