The Death Penalty A Fact Finding Report - pity, that
AUSTIN — Texas' appeals system for indigent convicts facing the death penalty suffers from poor representation, plagiarized boilerplate legal arguments and other flaws that could result in innocent people being executed, according to a scathing new report by a prominent lawyers group. The report by the nonprofit Texas Defender Service highlights cases in which attorneys never visited their condemned clients in prison, missed filing deadlines, even missed court hearings because they were busy on other cases. The group, which has a reputation for challenging Texas' frequent use of the death penalty, called the legal deficiencies "multiple and severe. The report is focused on direct appeals, those started immediately after a conviction in which trial errors and other issues can be legally vetted before an execution occurs. Those can include complaints of racial bias, ineffective counsel and other legal issues. The Death Penalty A Fact Finding ReportWas registered: The Death Penalty A Fact Finding Report
