203 people sentenced to death have been exonerated since 1973 – that’s 1 innocent person exonerated for every 8 that the U.S. executes. People of color, people with intellectual disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ people face disproportionate risks of being sentenced to death. Beyond these facts, research has found little evidence that fear of the death penalty deters crime. If it doesn’t make our communities safer, what purpose does the death penalty serve?
