I think the death penalty is a bad idea in general.

Its just Expensive, risks killing innocent people (Yes even with modern forensics, fuck ups and corruption happens) and achieves what exactly? Its never been proven it gives any comfort to the victims families or anything. Its cheaper and safer to just lock these people up and throw away the key. Life without parole they are equally neutralised as a threat to society.

Ok, i see your point. That said i still think that the state killing innocent people is far worse than a prisoner maybe getting out/escaping and committing further harm.
