A state commission says California’s death penalty system is close to collapse. The state spends more than $100 million a year to administer the death penalty, but it has the biggest backload of cases in the nation — and many are still waiting to be appointed attorneys for their appeal. We discuss the problems with the state’s death penalty system and possible solutions.

Guests:

Gerald Uelman, executive director of the California Commission on the Fair Administration of Justice

Gregory Totten, district attorney of Ventura County
