"I have come to believe that the death penalty is not what will help me heal.  Responding to one killing with another killing does not honor my daughter, nor does it help create the kind of society I want to live in, where human life and human rights are valued.  I know that an execution creates another grieving family, and causing pain to another family does not lessen my own pain."
