But Brown \u003ca href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Trailblazer-Biography-Jerry-Chuck-McFadden/dp/0520275632\">biographer Chuck McFadden\u003c/a> said if executions did resume in his final term, “he wouldn’t like it, not one bit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s an open question whether he would say anything publicly decrying the execution. … But he would certainly be unhappy about it, even though he’s a far different person today than he was in 1960.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that year Brown famously \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article107782622.html\">lobbied his father\u003c/a>, then-Gov. Pat Brown, to stay the execution of a convicted rapist. Seven years later, the younger Brown stood vigil outside of San Quentin as a cop-killer was put to death inside the prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Governors have broad authority under state law to block executions. The elder Brown spared 23 death row inmates by commuting their sentences but allowed 36 to be executed. In his biography “Public Justice, Private Mercy: A Governor's Education on Death Row,” Pat Brown described the difficulty of being “the last stop on the road to the gas chamber.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was an awesome, ultimate power over the lives of others that no person or government should have, or crave,” wrote Pat Brown, who contended that his qualms about it helped Ronald Reagan unseat him in 1966.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After 1967, legal challenges put the death penalty on hold in California for \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdcr.ca.gov/Capital_Punishment/history_of_capital_punishment.html\">25 years\u003c/a>. Because Jerry Brown’s first two terms as governor (from 1975-1983) came during this hiatus, he avoided the clemency decisions that had racked his father.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Executions in California\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>[CAExecutions]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a young governor, Jerry Brown took other actions reflecting his objection to capital punishment—and met resistance. In 1977 he vetoed a bill to reinstate it after courts had abolished it, only to see the Legislature overrule his veto. In 1978, voters re-elected Brown even as they approved an initiative creating the death penalty law still on the books today. Brown appointed justices opposed to executions, only to see voters refuse to retain them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time the state resumed executions in 1992, Brown was running for president—and touting his “uncompromising” opposition to capital punishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When someone is contained in a cage, then to bureaucratically, cold-bloodedly snuff out their life, whether by poison or electrocution or by gas, it doesn’t seem right to me,” Brown \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ltl9vAxAfuU\">said\u003c/a> that year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2007 he became California’s attorney general, a position that required him to defend hundreds of death penalty convictions even as the state stopped executions due to lawsuits over lethal injection.
