I am pro death penalty however not when the person is under 17. I feel that if you're old enough to be trusted with protecting our country and serving in the military, you are old enough and mentally mature enough to know what is right and wrong. I realize people do make mistakes but taking a life is the ultimate wrongdoing. Most of these killings are a result of committing another crime. The excuse "I never meant to kill them" doesn't cut it for me. Had they not made the decision to be there in the first place it would not have happened. My sympathies lie with both the victim's family and also the family of the person on death row.

This book shows how EVERYONE suffers.

Very well written and researched. ( )

I really liked the cover and title. This is a book of interviews and nothing else, but they're all formatted and framed differently. I learned a lot from reading this. ( )

RGG: First person narrative of four different teenagers' experiences on Death Row--the crimes they committed, their lives before, and their experiences behind bars, depicted in detail but not salaciously and with compassion but not pity. Each boy's voice is distinct making their stories relatively easy to follow. However, the realism is not for the faint of heart--these are not happy stories!. Reading Level: YA.
