Alabama is set to execute Charles "Sonny" Burton despite the fact that he never killed anyone. Ahead of his execution on Thursday, March 12, Burton, 75, spoke to NBC News about his fate. "I shouldn't die for something I haven't done," he said on a phone interview from William C. Holman Correctional Facility, which is where he has spent more than 30 years on death row. Burton was given the death sentence because of a legal doctrine known as felony murder.
