You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.203.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Michael L. Radelet''' (born October 24, 1950)<ref>((Cite web |url=http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n88119332.html |title=Radelet, Michael L. |website=Library of Congress Name Authority File |access-date=2019-05-06))</ref> is a sociologist at the [[University of Colorado Boulder]]. He is a professor in, and chairs, the Department of [[Sociology]] at the university.  In his research, Radelet focuses on his interests in [[criminology]], [[deviance (sociology)|deviance]], [[capital punishment]], societal reaction to crime, racial disparities in death sentencing and crime victims. Radelet has taught courses covering introductory sociology, criminology for both [[Undergraduate degree|undergraduate]] and [[Graduate diploma|graduate]] levels, capital punishment for both undergraduate and graduate levels, sociology of [[mental health]] and [[Disease|illness]] for both [[Undergraduate degree|undergraduate]] and graduate levels, graduate seminar on health professions, social and ethical issues in medical practice, human development, statistics, and social problems.<ref name=":1">((Cite web|url=http://deathpenalty.procon.org/view.source.php?sourceID=006096|title=Michael L. Radelet, PhD|website=deathpenalty.procon.org))</ref> He is the author of the book ''Facing the Death Penalty'' that was published in 1989, in which he describes the realities of capital punishment to those condemned.<ref name=":0">((Cite book|url=https://muse.jhu.edu/book/9662|title=Facing the Death Penalty: Essays on a Cruel and Unusual Punishment|date=1990-01-01|publisher=Temple University Press|isbn=9781439907801|location=Temple University|language=en))</ref>

==  Career ==
Radelet has been a professor at many universities and has taught in many fields of study throughout his career. Before his work at University of Colorado Boulder, Radelet worked as a professor and the chair of the department of sociology at the University of Florida, where many of his works originated. He has taught all over the U.S. in places like the [[University of Florida]], [[Florida State]], [[University of Colorado]], [[Indiana University]], [[Eastern Michigan University]] and [[Wisconsin University]]. Radelet has lectured and taught: Mental Health Administration, Sociology of Mental Health and Illnesses, Criminology, Special Topics on Capital Punishment, and Human Development.<ref name=":1" />

== Research and findings ==
Radelet throughout his career has studied the impact that the death penalty has on the mind, and on society.<ref name=":3" /> In the midst of the ongoing debate on whether or not the death penalty is more deterrent than long-term imprisonment, Radelet's studies revealed findings that could alter the system. His works surveyed many, coming up with multiple conclusions regarding the issue. These results are described in his article 'Do Executions Lower Homicide Rates: The Views of Leading Criminologists.'<ref name=":3">((Cite web|url=http://scholarlycommons.law.northwestern.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=7323&context=jclc|title=Do Executions Lower Homicide Rates: The Views of Leading Criminologists|last=Lacock|first=Tracy L|date=2008|website=scholarlycommons.law.northwestern.edu|publisher=Tracy L. Lacock))</ref> One of the main statistics projected in this article states that 88% of criminologists do not believe that capital punishment is an effective deterrent to homicide.<ref>((Cite web|url=http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/study-88-criminologists-do-not-believe-death-penalty-effective-deterrent|title=Study: 88% of criminologists do not believe the death penalty is an effective deterrent ((!)) Death Penalty Information Center|website=www.deathpenaltyinfo.org|access-date=2016-11-06))</ref> Radelet's knowledge in Psychology and Criminology helped him produce his book "Facing the Death Penalty." This book portrays what Michael experienced while working with those who are facing the death penalty. It talks a lot about the benefits and inhumanities of the death penalty and how Radelet's experience may change people’s views.

=== Racial disparities ===
Radelet has uncovered many facts and statistics relating to the problem of [[Race in the United States criminal justice system|racial disparities in the federal death penalty]]. He has statistics dating back to 1991 during the first federal death penalty prosecution. In the history of those who were prosecuted and sentenced to the death penalty,  most were of color.<ref name=":2">((Cite web|url=https://www.aclu.org/files/pdfs/capital/racial_disparities_federal_deathpen.pdf|title=The Persistent Problem of Racial Disparities in The Federal Death Penalty))</ref> These injustices continue today, more and more whites are able to evade the death penalty better than blacks.<ref name=":2" />

These injustices revealed by Radelet made the notion that racism is in the justice system apparent. These studies triggered an uprising of debate on whether the death penalty is a fair punishment.<ref name=":0" />
