despite a nation wide outcry and pleas for clemency, alabama executed an inmate for his involvement in 2004. he didn't actually kill any of them. more on the controversial execution and why the state went through with it. >> reporter: june 17, 2004, three birmingham police officers

gunned down attempting to serve a misdemeanor warrant on the west side. woods surrendered to police when another man in the house opened fire with an assault fire, killing officers carlos vander and owen and chisham. >> never did i imagine in my life feeling the pain and hurt we've experienced. >> reporter: the shocking murders left the city reeling. he said soon after he acted alone. he was convicted and sits on alabama's death row. but one conviction wasn't enough. they charged woods of conspearing of the killing of the officers. >> they have to be involved in a plan or scheme to kill. >> reporter: prosecutors alleged

a calculating voice led him in. >> he was terrified. >> reporter: and even though he wasn't fired a single shot he was sentenced to death. >> he was like how? he didn't do anything wrong. >> how much do you think race played a role? >> if you look at the victims, three white house officers and if you look at the people on death row, it's two black men. >> reporter: woods' defense team says it's one of many legal wrongs including years of bungalled appeals be other attorneys. we reached two of them who said they couldn't or wouldn't talk to us. but in a local radio interview last year the granddaughter of carlos owen reflected on his loss and hole it's left in all their lives.

>> i remember how special he used to make his grand kids feel. that's something he was so good at, making others feel loved and special. >> what would you say to the families? >> we are deeply, deeply sorry for what happened that day but the murderer of their family members is on death row, being punished. they don't need an innocent man as well. >> cnn's legal analyst and civil rights attorney. just looking at the facts of the case, the authorities in alabama say he was convicted by a jury of his peers. it wasn't unanimous but he was found guilty and he just had to be there bp.

where does the law stand? >> the reason this case evokes such emotions and you see people like martin lulgtther king iii others come to his defense is because he didn't pull the trigger and the trigger man has admitted woods hasser had nothing to do with it. he didn't know spencer was going to pull the trigger. the law at the time these horrific and they are horrific, murders occurred says you can be charged if you're involved in a come or not for to commit murter. what what his defenses have been is he wasn't told he had an ineffective tool and because he was not the trigger man, he

cannot be convicted of smarlter. and a police of 20 to 25 years. and there's some dispite says they don't know anything about this. the law has odd ways been clr j he helped to lure the police officers in the home to be shot by spencer, then he could be charged. i think it's just hard for us, lay people as well as civil rights lawyers like myself to wrap our arms around the idea someone can be execute whd they didn't pull the trigger. >> i hate to ask this question. if woods was white, would he be dead now? >> we know the death penalty in this countfry is applied in a

disproportionate manner. and they're over represented in terms of the people executed in the country. it does matter the race of the victims as well as the defense. and i believe that's why you've seen such a support with respect to woods. and there was this legal drama today. granted by the u.s. supreme court and later they decided to ultimately stay the execution. i think they thought there was going to be additional legal proceedings and perhaps a new trial. >> did the supreme court explain why a stay and then they refused to get involved?

>> no explanation. just a brief statement staying initialthy execution and later refusing to stay the execution any further and we know there were repeated pleas made to the governor of the state for clemency and those requests were also rejected by the governor. again, there was a video circulating from the family. they thought it was a reprieve and there was going to be additional hearings, perhaps a new trial. and the other troubling pieces sn attorneys involved. court-appointed attorney. apparently the trial ahrny had nivr tried am -- and he wasn't given accurate and complete

information from the attorney. a lot of mistakes were made with respect to deadlines. >> you are right. there were so many mistakes along the way, this guy didn't have a chance. thank you. our viewers internationally. if you're in the united states, please stay with us. lot more news after a quick short break.
