Should the Supreme Court Abolish the Death Penalty?

By Clinton Rogers

Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject American Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: 100, course: Information Literacy, language: English, abstract: Public opinion about the criminal justice system in the US, like many things in our country, has become staunchly polarized, and now more than ever, it seems an uncrossable gulf has grown in its midst. It can be seen in US politics and many other governmental bodies. The US criminal justice system's practices and failures have also become exceedingly more transparent and therefore vulnerable to intense scrutiny. Despite retractors and the fact it is one of the few developed countries to retain the death penalty, the US continues to punish those accused of the most heinous of crimes with the ultimate punishment. Ten prisoners have been executed so far this year.
