"For me, the most compelling reason to reject the death penalty is to
set ourselves on the path to the kind of society we really want for our
future. I want something better for our future. We cannot confront darkness with darkness and expect
light."
Connecticut State Senator Gayle Slossberg (D-Miford)
"Today is a dramatic and
potentially historic day because the Senate has ... an opportunity to
correct the arbitrariness, the discrimination, the random haphazard
approach to the application of our death penalty in this state.''
Connecticut State Senator Eric Coleman (D-Bloomfield)
“I cannot stand the thought of being responsible for somebody being
falsely accused and facing the death penalty. For me,
this is a moral issue and realizing that mistakes are obviously made.”
Connecticut State Senator Edith Prague (D-Columbia)
