However, studies conducted by the Department of Justice revealed that racial minorities were overrepresented in federal capital criminal cases and among those sentenced to death in U.S. District Courts. How did the Justice Department interpret these findings? Refer to http://www.usdoj.gov/dag/pubdoc/deathpenaltystudy.htm. Why did the American Civil Liberties Union conclude that the 2001 study was “fatally flawed”? Refer to http://www.aclu.org/capital/unequal/10571prs20010614.html In Gregg v.

problem under the guided-discretion statutes enacted in the wake of the Furman decision. Does the empirical evidence support or refute this conclusion? Do the few executions of Whites for crimes against African Americans adequately demonstrate that the application of the death penalty is not arbitrary or discriminatory?
