Death Penalty report

Amnesty has published information regarding last year's use of the death penalty. Good news in Europe as it was the first year that there were no recorded executions but not good news elsewhere. The worst suspected offender was China where Amnesty were unable to have access to the figures but reports have indicated it was in the thousands. The USA executed 52 people last year, unsurprisingly the majority of whom were in Texas. Here is the report.
