Amnesty International USA Responds to Death Penalty in Boston Bombing Case
Thanks to Steven W. Hawkins, executive director of Amnesty International USA for this statement about the death penalty verdict in the Boston bombing case.
“We condemn the bombings that took place in Boston two years ago, and we mourn the loss of life and grave injuries they caused. The death penalty, however, is not justice. It will only compound the violence, and it will not deter others from committing similar crimes in the future.
It is outrageous that the federal government imposes this cruel and inhuman punishment, particularly when the people of Massachusetts have abolished it in their state. As death sentences decline worldwide, no government can claim to be a leader in human rights when it sentences its prisoners to death.”
See you along the Trail.
