The 2013 question is:

It is now generally accepted that the State of Texas executed an innocent man when they put Carlos DeLuna to death.  In light of this, is he execution of an innocent person the cost of doing business when imposing the death penalty?  Or is the execution of an innocent person a reason to do away with the death penalty?
