Prejean: The Death of Innocents: An Eyewitness Account of Wrongful Executions

Jim Foster: Conversations On The Coast

In "The Death of Innocents: An Eyewitness Account of Wrongful Executions," author Sister Helen Prejean talks about her first-hand experiences witnessing the execution of Dobie Gillis Williams in 1999 and Joseph Roger O'Dell in 1997, how poor people are primarily affected by wrongful executions, and why the execution of Michael Morales was postponed indefinitely in 2006 and led to a moratorium on capital punishment in California. This third discussion with the author took place on a 2006 episode of "Conversations On The Coast with Jim Foster" originating in San Francisco, California. Photo: sisterhelen.org
