 QUESTION:
 Is it the case that a person sentenced to death for a crime in the United States has later been found innocent of that crime and released?

 ANSWER:
 Yes, it is indeed the case that individuals in the United States who were sentenced to death have later been found innocent and released. This typically occurs after new evidence comes to light, often through advances in forensic technology such as DNA testing, or through reevaluation of existing evidence or witness testimony. As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, the Death Penalty Information Center reported that 185 death row inmates had been exonerated since 1973.

 It's important to note that these exonerations highlight serious concerns about the justice system and the use of the death penalty. The process leading up to exoneration can take years or even decades, during which innocent people suffer the psychological trauma of awaiting execution. Even after exoneration, these individuals often face significant challenges reintegrating into society and may struggle with issues such as housing, employment, and mental health. Additionally, wrongful convictions and subsequent exonerations raise the unsettling question of how many innocent people may have been executed before their innocence could be proven. This has fueled ongoing debates about the fairness, effectiveness, and morality of the death penalty in the United States.
