A new Web page launched by the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty fea­tures infor­ma­tion about four men who have been exe­cut­ed but who may have been inno­cent. The site, based on NCADP’s report ​“Innocent and Executed: Four Chapters in the Life and Death of America’s Death Penalty,” pro­vides an in-depth look at the strong post-exe­cu­tion inno­cence claims that have sur­faced in the cas­es of Cameron Todd Willingham, Carlos DeLuna, and Ruben Cantu, all of Texas, and Larry Griffin of Missouri. It also fea­tures a Web-based ver­sion of the NCADP report and links to resources devel­oped to sup­port dis­cus­sions about these cas­es and the broad­er issue of wrongful convictions.
