Description
Can money buy you freedom? That’s the increasing fear as America wrestles with its conscience over the death penalty. 725 people have been executed in the US since 1976. And now one conservative Supreme Court judge has added her voice to calls for abolition because she fears that many are being executed because they can’t afford good-enough legal representation. We report on how one of the most experienced and zealous of death row lawyers, Clive Stafford Smith, born in Britain, now an American citizen is fighting his own – astonishingly successful – battle against Death Row.
