re: Woman freed from death row four days after she was supposed to die -

On average, someone sentenced to death in Mississippi spends about 14 years going through all of the appeals' processes. So this lady had exhausted her appeals and the AG asked the Supremes to set an execution date. Instead, apparently some new evidence appeared that showed that the judge had suppressed some evidence that the son had confessed. New evidence. Not evidence that had been seen before in the other appeals. I think 14 years' worth of appeals will turn up any errors made in any of the prior hearings - unless new evidence is found like in this case.
My question is where was the scum bag son that let his mother sit in prison for 14 years? But, I bet they find out in the end that she still had something to do with killing the husband.

The son confessed to the crime multiple times. That information was withheld from the jury.

Perhaps the problem is the entire system in Mississippi?
Read this and then tell me you don't think there are some serious problems.
The state was dead set on executing this poor woman
