What I really enjoyed in  about this book is that the author is against death penalty, despite the death penalty is for those who commit murder. The author gave examples of innocent people who suffered of death penalty. He wanted that death penalty should not be a capital punishment, what could be be capital punishment could be prison for the rest of your life . Despite his examples he gave about innocent people who got executed and who committed murder, a number of people still supporting the death penalty. What I realise is that people who are supporting the death penalty in the book  think that if the Justice Department remove the death penalty as a capital punishment, people could commit more murders. But the author think that, despite there’s a capital punishment called death penalty, people still commit murders. I support the author, because it gave an example of a rich man who committed a murder, didn’t get a death penalty, because he was rich. That’s why the author was against the death penalty, in my view the penalty is applied unjustly. That's why we should be all against it.
