Reinstatement of the death penalty
I found an interesting article in USA Today regarding the reinstated rule of the death penalty. The article was intriguing because I actually didn’t know that June of 2006 was when the Supreme Court decided to stall the executions. The article was entitled “States move on executions,” and it caught my attention.
It did leave me with a few questions: When did the Supreme Court decide to stall on the death penalty issue? What were the reasons? How many people were scheduled to be on death row for the past two years then? I thought the article was interesting and was an interesting topic; however, it spoke to an audience that knew the answers to these questions. Otherwise, the reader could be left confused. This is an enormous issue and one that readers might want to know more about.
