Former Ohio gov's brother pushes death penalty ban

As a liberal on most subjects, I draw the line on the death penalty. I am strongly in favor of retaining and enforcing the death penalty. I think the existence of DNA science strengthens the argument in favor of the death penalty, not the other way around, because DNA evidence reduces the chance that a jury might make a mistake.
And when there is no DNA evidence to support the Prosecution's case, a defendant is free to point that out to the jury.
Very succinctly and eloquently said, Methusala!
