I'm not an advocate of the death penalty. I believe that the death penalty is not a deterrent to violent crime. Many of the people on death row share a common denominator, mental illness at some level, coupled with substance abuse.

I was in Polk County court with client on a minor traffic misdemeanor (migrant worker, no valid driver's license). Because she had priors for the same offense, they wanted her to go to jail for 15 days. I was able to negotiate down it to community service on weekends. Despite it all, in a humble [...]
