From Russell Moore: “And now, maybe the time is over for arguments about the abstractions...maybe now is the time to look at what we actually see in front of us: this broken system...If we do, I think we must conclude that, whatever justice requires, this isn’t it.” christianitytoday.com/2026/1…
"At Tuesday’s budget session, Councilwoman Joanna Bryn Smith questioned the value of seeking the death penalty because death sentences are so rare. She noted that Luzerne County death sentence carried out was from 1938 and the last time a jury sentenced a defendant to death was in 1993." citizensvoice.com/2026/10/21…

Former Chief Deputy Prosecutor: "I have been wrong to support the death penalty all this time." journalgazette.net/opinion/c…
Our statement on President Trump's reversal of the planned livestream execution of the Fort Hood shooter.
"We welcome President Trump’s decision not to livestream the planned execution of Nidal Hasan. His decision follows widespread condemnation of the public spectacle.
“But this reversal does not resolve the deeper questions around capital punishment. It wastes taxpayer dollars, fails the families of victims, and does not improve public safety.
"The controversy should prompt conservatives to look beyond the method of execution and ask a more fundamental question: Is the death penalty a power the government should have at all?”
