The Death Penalty - California

[ilbegone]

I believe that the death penalty is more humane than a life sentence.

And, as in a life sentence, there will a be a percentage of those who were convicted yet are innocent of the crime they were charged with.

In addition to Jean's belief concerning costs and such, there will be fewer criminals running criminal empires from solitary confinement.

I believe that an inmate who murders another inmate should be swiftly executed as well as those who engage in coded communication with the outside or engages in criminal enterprise while behind bars, anyone who rapes another inmate, racial violence - as well as corrections officers who conspire with convicts concerning everything from aiding criminal organizations, smuggling drugs into prison, sex with prisoners, or uses inmates to "educate" or punish other inmates.

There will be much fewer problems concerning incarceration and recidivism, and significantly less misconduct by corrections officers.
