The prisoners on death row weren't taken off of it when NM, MD and CT abolished the death penalty? That sucks...

No, because the law was not made retroactively.

CT still has 12 on death row, MD 4 and NM 2.

Plus, Wyoming has the death penalty - but nobody is currently on death row.

The only reason the Connecticut law wasn't made retroactive is because of the 2007 Cheshire murder case. Hopefully in a few years when people calm down about that case it will be abolished entirely.
