Three new items have been added to DPIC's Web site, including a summary of a new report from The Sentencing Project, the complete results of a recent North Carolina poll, and an updated "Special Resources from DPIC" Web page:

1\. A summary of important facts from [The Sentencing Project’s](http://www.sentencingproject.org/) new report: [“The Meaning of ‘Life’: Long Prison Sentences in Context.”](http://www.sentencingproject.org/pubs_06.cfm) For example, the report notes that the use of life-without-parole sentences has expanded significantly--of the lifers in prison, one in four (26.3%) is serving a sentence of life without parole, having increased from one in six (17.8%) in 1992. Read [DPIC’s summary of the report](/article.php?scid=67&did=1025).

2\. The complete report of a recent public opinion poll ([see previous What's New item](/article.php?did=1005&scid=64))) in North Carolina. In particular, the poll found that by a margin of more than two-to-one (63% to 28%), state residents favor a two-year suspension of executions. See the [North Carolina poll](https://deathpenaltyinfo.org/documents/NCPoll.pdf) (pdf).

3\. A newly revised page of [Special Resources from DPIC](/article.php?scid=2&did=534) to help in your research of the death penalty.
