For death row I believe that they should be found guilty at every level of court in a country. They should then be given a period of 1-2 years in prison to allow for any last-minute evidence for their defense to arise.
Only after this should they be executed.

This is actually what usually happens..most executions take 10-15 years to actually occur. The appeals system allows them to face trial repeatedly on practically every level of the court system which can drag out for a very long time.
Illinois though has a horrible record and I think he did the right thing. There were just too many questions.
