Description
Life in Prison or Death Penalty? LWV tackles hot topic
The nonpartisan League of Women Voters has supported abolition of the death penalty since 2006. In Colorado, the last execution was in 1977. In May, Gov. John Hickenlooper granted convicted murderer Nathan Dunlap a temporary reprieve after he was sentenced to die the week of August 18. Jeffco LWV members and guests will examine Colorado's use of the death penalty, including Dunlap's reprieve, stalled House legislation and potential impact of the two current cases being sought by Denver and Arapahoe County District Attorneys. All meetings are open to the public regardless of party affiliation.
