Gov. Tom Corbett signs his first death warrants

Gov. Tom Corbett signed his first two execution warrants today but don't get too excited if you are an advocate for the death penalty.

Gov. Ed Rendell signed 119 execution warrants during his eight years as Pennsylvania governor and not a single inmate on the state's death row was executed. The problem is the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which has rendered the state's death penalty meaningless.
