chris, honestly, no. and again, this is coming from someone who has prosecuted a case where we were seeking death for someone who murdered several family members. you don t realize the stark realities until you re actually picking a jury, and going through the process. but to pick a jury in a capital murder case, your vote may lead to someone being put to death by lethal injection, are you capable of doing that for the person sitting across the table from you. the people who answer yes shake you to your core, in terms of thinking through what you re doing, and the execution, alabama alone, july of 2022, they tried to put judge aims to death, it took three hours because they couldn t find his vein. at a certain point, these problems are so widespread, we have to stop and ask ourselves, what are we doing, especially when in instances like joe james family didn t want to see him put to death. alabama doesn t require a unanimous vote of a jury to send someone to death row, i think,
