Capital cases involving foreigners as defendants are a serious
source of contention between the United States and foreign
governments. By treaty, foreigner defendants must be informed upon
arrest that they may contact a consul of their home country for
assistance, yet police and judges in the United States are lax in
complying. Foreigners on America's Death Row investigates the
arbitrary way United States police departments, courts, and the
Department of State implement well-established rights of foreigners
arrested in the US. Foreign governments have taken the United
States into international courts, which have ruled that the US must
enforce the treaty. The United States has ignored these rulings. As
a result, foreigners continue to be executed after a legal process
that their home governments justifiably find to be flawed. When one
country ignores the treaty rights of another as well as the
decisions of international courts, the established order of
international relations is threatened.
