Description: |
|
"In Dead Man Walking, Sister Helen Prejean helped us face the question of whether it is morally right for governments to kill the guilty. In The Death of Innocents, she ups the ante of moral reckoning: In a hopelessly flawed system of justice, what if we're killing innocent people along with the guilty? This important and well-written book is a deeply personal, compassionate, searingly honest eyewitness account of the death penalty in America. If you are not outraged by the sheer inhumanity and unfairness of state-sanctioned killing after reading this book, it might time for you to run for governor of Texas." - Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon |
