There are roughly 41 percent black and 45 percentwhite prisoners awaiting their execution. Since the reinstatement of capital punishment in 1976,1047 people have been executed. (Death Row 1, 5). Among all U.S. states allowing the deathpenalty, California, Texas and Florida have the most criminals on death row (Death Row 29).Normally, major reasons in favor of capital punishments are retribution, deterrence, and thegeneral protection of society.
