Cuomo is against the Death Penalty for capital crimes. In 1994 he was widely criticized for his administration of justice and his leftist, anti-death penalty, parole board appointments in particular, in light of the Arthur Shawcross (Genesee River Killer) mass murderer cases. He vetoed death penalty legislation more than seven times in spite of the publics wishes. <ref>[http://www.nytimes.com/1989/03/21/nyregion/cuomo-vetoes-death-penalty-seventh-time.html N.Y.
