DPIC is pleased to announce the com­ple­tion of our State Information Pages for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. These state pro­files pro­vide his­tor­i­cal and cur­rent infor­ma­tion on the death penal­ty for each state, includ­ing famous cas­es, past leg­isla­tive actions, and links to key orga­ni­za­tions and state offi­cials. For fre­quent­ly updat­ed infor­ma­tion, such as exe­cu­tion totals, the size of death row, or the num­ber of exon­er­a­tions, see our State-by-State Database. Readers are encour­aged to send addi­tion­al infor­ma­tion, pic­tures, and links to orga­ni­za­tions in their state. You can reach the State Information Pages through the ​“State by State” but­ton at the top of every page on our web­site or under the ​“Resources” tab in our main menu.

(DPIC, November 16, 2011). Much of the infor­ma­tion for these pages has been pro­vid­ed by indi­vid­u­als and orga­ni­za­tions work­ing on the death penal­ty in each state. Thanks to those who helped make this new resource pos­si­ble. For links to some of DPIC’s oth­er new resources, see our Special Resources page.
