In an exclusive interview, Robert Meeropol, vice-chair of Murder Victims' Families for Human Rights and the founder and executive director of the Rosenberg Foundation for Children, discussed with Taiwan News Chief Editorial Writer Dennis Engbarth how his experience as a child whose parents, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, were executed by the United States government for "conspiracy to commit espionage" at the height of the "anti-communist" Cold War period known as "McCarthyism" led to opposition to the death penalty.
平均13年假釋 無期徒刑如虛設+無期徒刑虛級化 法官難棄死刑

編按：這則新聞很有趣。首先，假釋是由法務部把關，過往的假釋制度浮濫的問題是誰造成的？誰沒有做好把關的工作？其次，在「無期徒刑虛級化，法官難捨死刑」的狀態下，是否意味者，過去有很多的案件，應該被判無期徒刑，但是卻因為「無期徒刑=服刑13年」，而讓法官重判死刑；是否意味者，許多罪不致死的案件，都被重判死刑；是否意味者「量刑」程序的改革很重要？最後，目前假釋制度已經提高到25年，這則新聞是否有誤導人民之嫌...
平均13年假釋 無期徒刑如虛設
（中央社記者安芷嫻台北2010年7月4日電）無期徒刑是法官替代死刑，對重大罪犯「永久隔離」社會的唯一選項。但台灣近年的無期徒刑，平均約13年就可假釋，比重判有期徒刑還不如，也是社會始終無法接受廢死的主因之一。
無期徒刑因具終身監禁的效果，在刑罰制度上，與死刑同為把重犯永久隔離社會的設計，因此很多國家都把無期徒刑做為替代死刑的選項。

U.S. group of murder victims' families argues against death penalty
Taipei, July 2 (CNA) State execution of convicted murderers does not guarantee peace of mind for the families of the victims, an international non-governmental organization said in Taipei Friday.
"Executing someone helps no one... Killing another human being does not undo that act of violence," said Robert Meeropol, vice-chair of the board of directors of the Murder Victims' Families For Human Rights (MVFHR).
