Re: Victim appeals for clemency for death row inmate

There are good reasons that the state prosecutes and sentences criminal offenses instead of having the victim do so.

If all it took was a victim wanting to "forgive" to set aside a death sentence, can you imagine the pressure and threats that could be made against victims trying to get the convict's sentence reduced?
