Father of murder victim slams CA Gov. Newsom for giving criminals 'reprieve'

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

42% : While the order is largely symbolic - California has not executed an inmate since 2006 amid legal challenges - it still marked a major victory for opponents of capital punishment given the state's size and its national political influence.
37% : When Newsom signed the executive order instating the moratorium on death penalty executions, he said, "We cannot advance the death penalty in an effort to soften the blow of what happens to these victims."
