Capital Punishment
An examination of death penalty practices in the USA in the past few decades indicates a state‐by‐state movement toward abolition, a significant drop in executions since the peak in the late 1990s, and an equally astounding downturn of death sentences during the same time frame. This means that capital punishment continues largely as a function of outcomes in a very small number of outlier counties in a handful of Southern states that are respons…

While there has been much empirical testing of this hypothesis, the intent of this …
