       problems with capital punishment in the united states are legion, and the bill of particulars is familiar. incompetent lawyers represent some capital defendants. some capital trials are infected with racial bias, and race continues to shape the selection of which capital defendants receive death sentences and which do not. despite efforts by the united states supreme court to shield mentally ill and retarded individuals from execution, procedural protections have fallen short.as a result, mentally disabled people continue to be executed in death chambers across the country. recent headlines also call into question the criminal justice system’s ability to accurately sort the innocent from the guilty. we are now aware of scores of wrongful convictions, often thanks solely to d.n.a. testing, about which we never would have learned otherwise. capital trials in particular, for whatever reason, have proven to be especially fertile grounds for exonerations. 1 we consistently discover error in capital cases at higher rates than in noncapital cases.2 numerous innocents on death row have been exonerated of the crimes that put them there.
