they are but, after about 20 years or more. In some extreme cases they get another trial if the judge was biased or information was wrong!
==========
Unlike incarceration, the death penalty is a rather permanent punishment that cannot be undone if an error is discovered later. As such, the penalty is not carried out until all avenues of appeal have been exhausted. The lengthy appeals process can result in someone being on death row for 20 -30 years before they either die of health problems (like old age or cancer) or their appeals are exhausted. Some remain on death row without being executed because they are shown to have become insane while waiting; Gary Alvord was on death row in Florida for nearly 40 years with two execution dates set but postponed because when he was examined they found him insane and the law will not allow someone to be executed unless they understand what is going to happen to them...

It doesn't have anything to do with the Death Rows where people await execution, and everything to do with Death Row Records. Basically, a Death Row chain is a piece of bling.

What makes it notorious is someone tried to steal Tupac's from him shortly before Tupac was murdered.
