Capital punishment remains a hotly contested moral issue, with some people thinking that the worst perpetrators deserve to die, and others saying "not in my name". This week Ethics Forward sits down with Rev. Patrick Delahanty, chairman emeritus and advocacy director of the Kentucky Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, to discuss the ethics and politics of the struggle to end capital punishment in Kentucky and beyond.
