Death Penalty Information Center
The Death Penalty Information Center (DPIC) is a non-profit organization based in the United States that provides information and analysis on the death penalty. It aims to promote informed discussion about capital punishment by offering resources such as research reports, statistics, and news updates. The DPIC does not advocate for or against the death penalty but focuses on presenting factual information.
Founded in 1990, the DPIC serves as a resource for policymakers, journalists, and the public. It highlights issues related to the death penalty, including wrongful convictions, racial bias, and the costs associated with capital punishment. The center's work contributes to ongoing debates about the future of the death penalty in the U.S.
