Sample Group Resolution


"Many people mistakenly believe capital punishment is a strong victims rights issue. It is not. . . . What victims need most from those working in the justice system is to have the right to fairness, compassion, respect and dignity recognized and respected. They do not need nor do they want the vengeance of death."
