Your recitation of the facts from the Morales case left out a couple of pertinent facts:

(1) The original judge from the case said he made a mistake in sentencing Morales to death (see http://www.newsreview.com/sacramento/Content?oid=51090)

(2) Serious questions have been raised about the integrity of the jailhouse informant that provided the key testimony in the case (see http://wweek.com/editorial/3228/7565/).

It would make life easier if the issues surrounding the death penalty were as black and white as you apparently believe they are. Unfortunately, they’re not.
