1. Reform the Florida Death Penalty 
As evidenced by the case of Gary Eldon Alvord, the death penalty takes too long in the State of Florida, once an individual is found guilty. There should be a limit of 3 appeals per case and only if new evidence surfaces that could change the outcome of the case. This must be new physical or scientific evidence (dna) or witness materialization.
If there are 3 or more witnesses which results in a guilty verdict beyond all reasonable doubt, there should be NO appeals. These individuals should be moved to the front of the list and executed within a timely manner. These individuals cannot be re-habilitated. The families of their victims demand and deserve restitution.
