The authors analyze death penalty charging data for Los Angeles country involving homicides from 1990-1994. The data were collected by the Los Angeles Times. This data set is one of the largest tabulations of homicide dependant data yet collected. A Bayesian logistic regression analysis is applied with a proper prior formulated to provide conservative inferences. The authors illustrate procedures for inference for polytomous predictors and report three analyses with three partially overlapping sets of covariates.
