Though African Americans are slightly more likely than Whites to be the perpetrators in interracial homicides, only 11% of all homicides are interracial, whereas 89% are intraracial.

Race, Rape, and the Death Penalty https://perma.cc/F27F-NAHA

The wrongful conviction of a Black man for rape was reversed nearly five decades later in what is said to be the longest-standing wrongful conviction in US history https://perma.cc/FX8S-8FNQ

Black people are 13.6% of the American population but 53% of the 3,200 exonerations listed in the National Registry of Exonerations. Judging from exonerations, innocent Black Americans are seven times more likely than white Americans to be falsely convicted of serious crimes.

Innocent Black people are about seven-and-a-half times more likely to be convicted of murder than innocent white people. That applies equally to those who are sentenced to death and those who are not.

Part of that disparity is tied to the race of the victims. About 13% of murders by Black people have white victims, but twice as many—26% of innocent Black murder exonerees— were convicted of killing white people.

Innocent Black people are almost eight times more likely than white people to be falsely convicted of rape. A prisoner serving time for sexual assault is more than three times more likely to be innocent if he is Black than if he is white.

Black sexual assault exonerees also received harsher sentences than whites: 27% were sentenced to life imprisonment (55/207) compared to 17% for white sexual assault exonerees (20/116); of the rest, 17% of Black rape exonerees were sentenced to 45 years or longer (36/207), compared to 7% of whites (8/116)

On average, Black sexual assault exonerees spent more than four years longer in prison than white sexual assault exonerees, 13.5 years compared to 9.4 years.

Innocent Black people are about equally overrepresented among murder exonerees who were sentenced to death, 56%.

Black are almost raping black women and black rape are around ⅓ of the total rape.

Death / lifetime sentence (part 2)

There is no credible evidence that the death penalty deters crime more effectively than a prison term https://perma.cc/RS27-JXB3 —> Again we are checking such things without considering the difference of crimes (exactly like health guidelines are doing, without providing an exact therapy for a specific disease or stage of disease, but they just write general recommendations) ... plus would be cool if you cite "such science" you are saying ....

You do that here in part https://perma.cc/5YKQ-8R86

In 2004 in the USA, the average murder rate for states that used the death penalty was 5.71 per 100,000 of the population as
against 4.02 per 100,000 in states that
did not use it. In 2003 in Canada, 27
years after the country abolished the
death penalty the murder rate had fallen
by 44 per cent since 1975 —> why we don't talk about crimes from people released after a soft sentence

The death penalty reduces drug crime —> again same shit about drugs ...

Another point: having death sentence doesn't mean you need to use it!!! but without having it, you cannot use it, when needed!

Amnesty, you look like some position papers citing studies published 30 years ago (we already wrote about such papers before ...), even if things changed in 30 years and new studies / methods got published / released ...

PS: until now we haven't done any detailed search about death sentence in recent scientific papers, but remember that many factors have an influence on the effectiveness ... plus it's not just about reducing crime, but to keep people safe and reduce costs, in country with huge public debts. So effectiveness related to what? Without considering that sometimes stats are not the reality ... especially if no one is telling specific things to the public ...
