Wayne Tompkins was executed this week.

The Innocence Project of Florida questions why.

This blog was too new to be on their mailing list so as to receive their desperate request asking for last minute assistance to argue their claim, and unfortunately other blawgs (law bloggers)were unaware of the request.

This article by Scott Greenfield raises some interesting issues about blawging, discusses the work of the Innocence Project, and reflects on the execution. For those in criminal defense or prosecution, it is worth a read.
