Beware of the premise that everyone on death row is guilty. Is executing an occasional innocent person ok?
Innocent of what?
I don't trust our legal/justice system 100%. But I trust it more than I trust statistics that show 1 in 10 people executed are "innocent".
But the answer to your question is, no, a truly innocent person should not be executed for a crime they didn't commit. But the system isn't, and can never be, perfect.
