“During nearly 11 years in office, Perry has overseen 234 executions — by far the most of any recent governor in the United States — and has rarely used his power to grant clemency. He has granted 31 death row commutations; most of those — 28 — were the result of a 2005 United States Supreme Court decision banning capital punishment for minors.”
Excellent graphic.
A shameful record.
