Executed with Deborah Norville

Thoughts about the death sentence. Is it law or is it personal?

Deborah Norville reviews compelling death-penalty cases and conducts first-hand interviews to deconstruct the unique details of extreme crimes.

In the first episode, the viewer gets to discover how John Allen Muhammad's failures in life laid the groundwork for seething anger toward society that saw both him and his stand-in son, Lee Boyd Malvo, take the lives of 10 randomly selected people.

In the second episode, the viewer meets Crips co-founder and convicted murderer Stanley "Tookie" Williams, who claimed to have found redemption in prison, wrote children's books, and preached anti-violence until his controversial execution.
