Death Row in Texas

The State of Texas has executed 1,021 men since 1923.

This is an analysis on the 515 of those men executed from 1984 to date.

The idea for this analysis was inspired by a post on Hacker News. I initially set out to do some sentiment analysis on the last statements - something I'm still planning on doing - but in the end the page ended up being a bit of a mish-mash of data and charts.

I plan on revisiting sentiment analysis stuff in the near future, as well as adding data from the US census API. Suggestions for ideas or a sentiment analysis API would be much appreciated (contact details in the footer).
