The death penalty was more of a scare tactic to get some people to talk lawyers could say, "You tell us what happened or what you did and we will take the death penalty off the table" for some people that is enough to get them to tell things they might not tell. To be honest though I think that if somebody is given a fair trial and eveidence is presented against them and if it is by jury 12 different people come together and say that person is guilty and they shoudl be sentenced to death then that is what shoudl be done. The person sentenced can appeal and if they did not do it something shoud come up that will prove their innocence they have like fourteen to twenty years to appeal its not like they are sentened to death and they die that day.

When they were committing their haynes crime, they certainly were not thinking about their victim. Now that they will sit and die in prison, they have nothing to loose, the crime in the prison system will be on the rise and they won't think twice about taking another inmates life or even a correctional officer's life, why because they have nothing to loose, they're already in prison for life, why not continue killing and climb the gang leadership ladder!
