Macy sent 54 to death row. That is pretty well documented.
The views on the number of “innocent” will vary quite a bit by the agenda and views of the authors of the material.
People should pay heed to this post. They should also know that with science, hindsight is sometimes 20/20. Things change. And Gilcrist was probably a whole lot more culpable than Macy in any cases that were bad, whether intentional or just incompetence, who really knows?

I was once questioned by Macy as a potential juror on the murder of an OHP officer. He asked me if I had any issues with the death penalty. I told him the straight up truth and said "NO". The defense attorney stood up and had me booted on the spot. IIRC, each side had a certain number they could boot for any reason, or even no reason. I fell in that number. I'm pretty sure Macy sent that guy the death row. Not all of his cases were trumped up.
