Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani's sentence for allegedly committing adultery and murder, in a case filled with prosecutorial discrepancies, has been commuted from stoning to hanging. While the latter is a less painful way to die, it bears repeating, the case is weak and Defendant, Ashtiani, has not been given a fair trial. 

Yesterday, Ashtianti, was tortured before being forced to confess to crimes she previously maintained she did not commit, on television in Iran. The Iranian government needs to consider its image in the world and not execute Ashtiani, on a case fraught with legal errors.
