When Jerry Brown was governor of California the first time around, he was opposed to the death penalty. It was he who appointed Rose Bird to the State Supreme Court, and it was she who led the charge to overturn California's death penalty statute, in the process forestalling hundreds of executions, and that's why Charles Manson, Richard Ramirez and the Menendez Brothers are still alive today. The end? Not so much.
