conviction with the death penalty became increasingly stigmatized- less and less was this an acceptable form of punishment and grew to be seen in a much more negative light.

Arthur Miller is not in favor of capital punishment. Although, reading this article in a verbatim perspective can be quite rigorous.

The death penalty is a very heated topic with strong opinions on both sides. There is a cornucopia of articles and statistics that support both sides.
