From the perspective of the family, it's hard to deal with the fact that what you believed to be true, might not be true anymore. If he's not guilty, it's painful for them just because now they have no clue who did this and have to start from square one (reliving the whole thing and trying to find the real killer.)
This is not to say that I think they should execute someone in the face of immense doubt just to satisfy a familial need for closure (I'm against capital punishment for a variety of reasons.) I'm just saying that that's where they might be coming from.
