Alabama Rancher Keeps American Tradition Alive, One Repair and One Horse at a Time (opens the original)
Read excerpt
SHELBY COUNTY, Ala. (WBMA) — For many people, the workday ends when they head home. But on a ranch, the work is never really done. There is always something to fix, an animal to care for or another job waiting for tomorrow. For Alabama rancher Andy Ford, that work is more than a daily routine. It is a way of life — one he learned from his father and is now passing on through the care of his ranch, his horses and the lessons that come with both. “There's always something to fix,” Ford said. “It's
Alabama's Death Penalty, Part 4: The Prosecutor's Decision -- Where a Capital Case Begins (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every execution begins long before an inmate enters an execution chamber. Long before the appeals. Before years of court hearings. Before the national headlines. The process begins inside a district attorney's office. In the final installment of ABC 33/40's four-part investigative series on Alabama's death penalty, we examine one of the earliest—and most consequential—decisions in the capital punishment system: whether prosecutors seek the death penalty at all.

Read excerpt
When the trials have ended, the appeals are exhausted, and an execution date is set, only a small number of people are allowed inside the execution chamber. For the past 15 years, Hood has traveled to prisons across the country, ministering to men on death row and accompanying many of them during their final moments. He has witnessed 12 executions, including several of Alabama's most closely watched cases. His role is neither to determine guilt nor innocence. It is to offer prayer, comfort, and
