O'Connor worries about fairness of executions

In The Seattle Times, Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor has said that there are "serious questions" about whether capital punishment is being fairly administered in the United States. "If statistics are any indication, the system may well be allowing some innocent defendants to be executed," O'Connor said in a speech to the Minnesota Women Lawyers group.
