Very moving
I have not seen 'Into the Abyss' but "On Death Row' recently screened on Australian TV. When Herzog interviewed Linda Cartys prosecutor and said that he sees her as a human being. Small statements like that carry so much power and bring out the truth. I find the details of the crimes horrendous, but they have not found sufficient evidence for Linda and I worry they are doing a remake of the film' In the Heat of the Night'. To charge someone and sentence them to death with no decent trial is extremely wrong and the practice of capital punishment I think is barbaric and wrong. Two wrongs dont make a right. Killing is never right. I feel I will never forget these people interviewed, I know Jesus forgives but those killing the people on death row will they ask for forgiveness? There have been issues with the chemicals to kill not working properly and the person suffering for a long period as not suffficiently qualified people carry out the execution. There are layers and layers of evil doing in this whole mess.
