Description:In addition to revealing statistics gathered from surveys sent to death row inmates, writers for the Dallas Morning News delve into the personal stories and crimes of the men and women waiting on death row.
Two reporters for The Dallas Morning News analyze the responses to
the newspaper's national survey of death row inmates in 1994 and early
1995. Of the 3,000 questionnaires mailed, 700 were returned. They had
the help of lawyers, a criminologist, a psychiatrist, a warden, and
former death-row inmates to interpret the answers. The data are
augmented with photographs and excerpts from interviews of nearly 50
inmates.
