"When people of color are killed in
the inner city, when homeless people
are killed, when the "nobodies" are
killed, district attorneys do not seek
to avenge their deaths. Black,
Hispanic, or poor families who have a
loved one murdered not only don't
expect the district attorney's office to
pursue the death penalty—which, of
course, is both costly and time
consuming—but are surprised when
the case is prosecuted at all."
