Mister Adequate posted:Oh I'm sorry, I used the term "factual innocence" and states are absolutely interested in an objective and unbiased review of such cases, in no way deliberately sabotaging efforts to demonstrate a wrongful conviction. So the actual legal term factual innocence is not something I can demonstrate and, of course, this means no innocent person, or person whose prosecution falls far short of the truly high bar needed to warrant execution, has ever been executed. I'm an opponent of the death penalty, but you should pick a better example. Quick googling shows that the sample in the article you're referring to was tested in 2006, and it was a match for the man that was executed. This is the reference Wikipedia uses: http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/2006-01-12-dna-virginia_x.htm
