Around 20%

As of October 2021, there are approximately 2,500 people on death row in the United States. This number fluctuates due to executions, commutations, and new death sentences being imposed. It is important to note that death row populations vary by state.

AnswerWe would like to think that there are no innocent people on death row. However there is always the chance. There is no number or percentage to be figured because if we knew they were innocent and on death row then they would be removed making the number zero.AnswerYou are quite misinformed in your statement that "if we knew they were innocent and on death row then they would be removed making the number zero." If you educated yourself a little more before you opened your mouth and gave a faulty answer to a person that is looking for a liable one, you would know that since 1973, 111 innocent people were executed and the numbers are slowly rising. Because of faulty accusations and witnessing, these innocent people are held in prison no matter how many nights they stay awake, yelling that they're innocent. If the judge and jury have, what they think, is liable evidence or some form of an accurate witness, they will take their opinion with them to the grave. Not all DNA is available for everyone.AnswerNote that Answer number two quotes an exact number of factually innocent people executed in 1973. Exact information is impossible to know and can only be an estimate.
There is no way to know for sure. Actually, there is no evidence to suggest that any innocent person has actually been killed by the death penalty. In fact with DNA testing the chances are close to 0 that any innocent person will ever be killed by the death penalty. Since 1973, over 130 people have been released from death rows throughout the country due to evidence of their wrongful convictions. In 2003 alone, 10 wrongfully convicted defendants were released from death row.
There is really no way to tell for how many people have been wrongly executed. Many people sentenced to death have proclaimed their innocence to their last breath.
As of January 2010 there are 398 death row inmates in Florida.

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. It's a neck chain with a pendant in the shape of the Death Row Records logo. Apparently all the rappers on Death Row Records had them. What makes it notorious is someone tried to steal Tupac's from him shortly before Tupac was murdered.
People are on death row for so long because they can appeal the verdict time and time again and that post pones their death sentence.
