Vox Pop
A new bill before the Georgia House of Representatives would provide that only nine out of twelve jurors be required to issue the death penalty for offenders properly convicted in capital cases. Do you think such a requirement should be allowed? Why or why not?
"I do." JOE COLLINS Wilkes Board of Education
"I think they need 12." BARBARA SMITH Hollander Home Fashions
"I think that the requirement should be allowed because it would save the taxpayers money because it would prevent known murderers from getting life imprisonment and that again would save the taxpayers money." LARA CALDWELL Merchandiser
"I think it should still be 12 jurors to decided if the death penalty should be enforced or not. I'm not a believer in the death penalty so it needs to remain the same." DAVID BALE Pliant Corp.
