How Many Innocent People Did He Execute? The Texas Death Penalty Under Governor George W. Bush is an exhaustive research project.  The findings of the research project are documented and all factual claims are sourced.  Footnotes substantiate the history and allow for further research by those who are interested.

My background is academic, and the project is academic in nature.  Due to the claims of the investigation my credentials may be a point of consideration.
