  • Death Sentence - "The Future of Death Row: Where Justice Stands”
    Jan 28 2026
    The Future of Death Row: Where Justice Stands” The final episode of Death Sentence steps back from individual crimes to examine the death penalty itself. Using data, case law, and lived realities of death row, the episode explores how capital punishment functions in modern America—who receives death sentences, how long executions take, and why geography and race so often shape outcomes. It investigates the financial costs, the risk of wrongful convictions, and the psychological toll of decades spent awaiting execution. As public support declines and states abandon executions, Episode Three asks whether the death penalty is justice in action or a failing system nearing its end—and what should replace it if capital punishment disappears.

    Jan 28 2026
    “Dylann Roof: The Charleston Church Massacre” Episode two of Death Sentence focuses on Dylann Roof and the racially motivated massacre at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. The episode traces Roof’s path into white supremacist extremism, examining how online radicalization, isolation, and hate ideology culminated in the murder of nine Black worshippers during Bible study. Through survivor accounts, courtroom testimony, and legal analysis, the episode explores why Roof became the first person sentenced to death for federal hate crimes. It also confronts the aftermath—public forgiveness, national reckoning over racism, and the question of whether capital punishment can ever address crimes driven by ideology and hate.
