In its eighth year as the leading reference book on capital punishment in the U. S., Death Row continues to provide law enforcement agencies, legal professionals and journalists the most comprehensive information on the worlds most controversial subject. Whats different about this year is the publics heightened awareness; almost macabre interest in the death penalty, which has transformed Death Row VIII into one of the worlds most fascinating coffee table books. In response to your voracious appetite for weird and unusual stories, we have added hundreds of vignettes and photographs to our rosters while expanding our feature stories and in-depth profiles. In addition to reporting record-breaking news, including more heinous crimes, more juvenile arrivals, more insidious appeals and speedier executions (see Dont Mess with Texas this edition), we have become record breakers ourselves, offering more statistical information, crime scene photographs and death row trivia than ever before. Death Row is published annually by Bobit Publishing Company and POLICE, the leading law enforcement magazine in North America.
